- Use of any P glycoprotein inducers within 14 days prior to dosing or any P glycoprotein inhibitors within 5 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to dosing (Appendix 6).
- Use of any carboxylesterase 2 inhibitors within 5 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to dosing (Appendix 7).
- Participation in a clinical study involving administration of an investigational drug (new chemical entity) in the past 30 days.
