- The subjects have participated in a clinical trial and received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the study: 30 days; 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer) or currently in a study of an investigational device.
- Exposure to more than four new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
- Previous exposure to intravenous lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in a clinical research setting.
- Alanine transaminase (ALT) >1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening.
- Bilirubin >1.5xULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%) at screening.
- Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of study treatment.
- A positive pre-study drug/alcohol screen at screening.
- A positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody at screening.
- Persistent clinically significant abnormal C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at screening
- Persistent clinically significant abnormal white cell count (WCC) levels at screening (if clinically significant abnormality is detected, WCC can be retested as clinically indicated)
- Platelets < 150 x 10^9 per liter (L) at screening. – Fasted Triglycerides >3.4 millimole per liter (mmol/L) at screening. – Fasted Total cholesterol >7.7 mmol/L at screening.
- Random glucose > = 11.1 mmol/L at screening.
- Urinary cotinine levels indicative of smoking or history or regular use of tobacco- or nicotine-containing products within 3 months prior to screening.
- History of regular alcohol consumption within 6 months of the study defined as: an average weekly intake of >14 units. One unit is equivalent to 8 gram of alcohol: a half-pint (approximately 240 milliliter [mL]) of beer, 1 glass (125 mL) of wine or 1 (25 mL).
- Where participation in the study would result in donation of blood or blood products in excess of 500 mL within a 56 day period.
