11. Positive urine drug/alcohol testing at screening or check-in (Day -1), or history of substance abuse or alcohol abuse (defined as greater than 2 standard drinks on average each and every day, where one standard drink is defined as containing 10 g of alcohol and is equivalent to 1 can or stubby of mid-strength beer, 30 ml nip spirits, or 100 ml wine) within the previous 5 years (may be repeated once per timepoint, at the discretion of the Investigator, in the instance of a positive result).

13. Previous participation in this study or previous participation in another study within 5 half-lives (if known) of the agent, or 30 days, whichever is longer, of Day 1.

Note: prior participation at any time in non-invasive methodology trials in which no drugs were given is acceptable.
14. Consumption of red wine, Seville oranges, grapefruit, or grapefruit juice, pummelos, other citrus fruits, grapefruit hybrids or fruit juices containing such products from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication.
15. Employee or family member of an employee of the Sponsor, clinical research unit, or clinical research organization at which the study will be conducted.
16. Unable to cooperate fully with the requirements of the study protocol, including the schedule of events, or likely to be non-compliant with any study requirements.
17. Any disease or condition (medical or surgical) that, by the determination of the Investigator, precludes the subject's participation in the study or would place the subject at risk as a result of participation in the study.

Note: Volunteers should refrain from consumption of any foods containing poppy seeds within 48 hours (2 days) prior to screening and prior to Day -1 to avoid false positive drug screen results
