7. Presence or history of significant gastrointestinal, liver or kidney disease, orsurgery (with the exception of cholecystectomy and appendectomy) that may affect drugbioavailability.

16. Any clinically significant illness including current acute or chronic infections inthe 28 days prior to the first study drug administration.
17. Use of any prescription drugs in the 28 days prior to the first study drugadministration, that in the opinion of an Investigator would put into question thestatus of the participant as healthy.
