Have clinical laboratory test results within normal reference range for the population or investigator clinical research unit (CRU), or results with acceptable deviations that are judged to be not clinically significant by the investigator
Have venous access sufficient to allow for blood sampling
Have agreed to maintain the same activity level throughout the course of the study
