No
- Male subjects between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive.
- Male subjects must agree to use one of the contraception methods listed in Section 8. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until 90-95 hours post-last dose.
- Past or present disease, which as judged by the investigator, may affect the outcome of this study. These diseases include, but are not limited to, cardiovascular disease, malignancy, hepatic disease, renal disease, haematological disease, neurological disease, endocrine disease or pulmonary disease (including but not confined to chronic bronchitis, emphysema, bronchiectasis or pulmonary fibrosis).
- Clinically significant abnormalities in safety laboratory analysis at screening.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Male subjects between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive.
