- •Current history of cancer.
- •History of HIV-related thrombocytopenia.
- •Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- •Any condition, including preexisting psychiatric and psychological disorders, which will in the opinion of the investigator interfere with the trial conduct or safety of the participant.
- •Abnormal results of standard of care laboratory tests:
- •Confirmed haemoglobin <11g/dl for women and <12 g/dl for men
- •Confirmed platelet count <100 000/µl *

- •Acute or serious illness, in the opinion of the site investigator, requiring systemic treatment and/or hospitalization within 60 days prior to entry.
- •The following treatment will be prohibited three months before screening and during the study:
- •immunosuppressive drugs (inclusive corticosteroids) except for drugs used for topical use.
- •Immunomodulatory drugs including but not limited to Granulocyte-colony stimulating factors, Granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor, interleukin 2, 7 & 15.
