A stable medical condition is defined as no change in prescription medication, dose, or frequency of medication in the last three months (90 days) and health outcomes of the specific disease are considered to be within acceptable limits in the last six months (180 days). Any change due to change of health care provider, insurance company, or that is done for financial reasons, as long as in the same class of medication, will not be considered a violation of this inclusion criterion. Any change in prescription medication due to improvement of a disease outcome, as determined by the site PI or appropriate sub-investigator, will not be considered a violation of this inclusion criterion. Subjects may be on chronic or as needed (prn) medications if, in the opinion of the site PI or appropriate sub-investigator, they pose no additional risk to subject safety or assessment of solicited events and immunogenicity. Topical, nasal, and inhaled medications (with the exception of some uses of corticosteroids as outlined in the Subject Exclusion Criteria), vitamins, and contraceptives are permitted. 5.
