Autoimmune disease (autoimmune thyroid disease is permissible and vitiligo or mild eczema not requiring chronic therapy is permissible). 11. Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency including anatomic or functional asplenia\* or immunosuppression as a result of underlying illness or treatment. \*Any splenectomy is exclusionary. 12.

Active neoplastic disease\*. * Subjects with a history of malignancy may be included if treated by surgical excision or if treated by chemotherapy or radiation therapy and has been observed for a period that in the investigator's estimation provides a reasonable assurance of sustained cure (not less than 36 months). 15. Chronic topical or systemic corticosteroid use\*. * Corticosteroid nasal sprays for allergic rhinitis are permissible. Persons using a topical corticosteroid for a limited duration for mild uncomplicated dermatitis such as poison ivy or contact dermatitis may be enrolled the day after their therapy is completed. Oral or parenteral (IV, SC, or IM) corticosteroids given for non-chronic conditions not expected to recur are permissible if, within the year prior to enrollment, the longest course of therapy was no more than 14 days and no oral or parenteral corticosteroids were given within 30 days prior to enrollment. Intraarticular, bursal, tendon, or epidural injections of corticosteroids are permissible if the most recent injection was at least 30 days prior to enrollment. 16.

Any Grade 1 or higher value for any screening test will exclude the subject from enrollment with the exception of hematuria \> / = 1 + detected during menses or other endometrial bleeding for females. In this situation, the test can be repeated if clinically warranted but is not considered an indicator of poor health status or increased risk and so is not a contraindication to enrollment. 29.
