b. Interstitial lung disease requiring constant oxygen therapy. This excludes oxygen used to aid sleep or exercise
c. Pulmonary hypertension requiring constant oxygen therapy. This excludes oxygen used to aid sleep or exercise
d. Subjects requiring supplemental tube feeding or parenteral nutrition
2. Certain medications at Visit 1, including:
a. Treatment with intravenous corticosteroids within 4 weeks before Visit 1 (Note: treatment with intra-articular corticosteroids within 4 weeks before Visit 1 is allowed)

c. Any investigational agent within 30 days or 5 therapeutic half-lives of that agent whichever is longer, before Visit 1
3. Significant diseases or conditions other than DM that may influence response to the study product or safety, such as:
a. Acute or chronic hepatitis B or C infection (HBsAg or HCV RNA positivity)
b. Human immunodeficiency virus infection
c. History of active tuberculosis or positive tuberculosis test without a completed course of appropriate treatment or having already completed at least 1 month of ongoing appropriate treatment
d. Evidence of cancer (except for treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cervical carcinoma in situ) within 3 years of Visit 1

e. Creatinine clearance < 50 mL/min on screening blood test, per the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study or in 24 hour urine creatine clearance measurement
5. Significant diseases or conditions other than DM or concurrent medical therapies at Screening or Visit 1, including a history of non-compliance with medical treatments, that may put the subject at greater safety risk, influence response to study product, or interfere with study assessments.
