             affect vital organ function or require immune suppressive treatment including systemic
             corticosteroids. This includes but is not limited to: history of immune-related
             neurologic disease, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune (demyelinating) neuropathy,

             including physiologic corticosteroids are eligible. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis
             and other arthropathies, Sjogren's syndrome, and psoriasis controlled with topical
             medication, and patients with positive serology, such as antinuclear antibodies (ANA)
             or anti-thyroid antibodies should be evaluated for the presence of target organ
             involvement and potential need for systemic treatment but should otherwise be
             eligible. Patients with type I diabetes mellitus, residual hypothyroidism due to
             autoimmune condition only requiring hormone replacement, or conditions not expected to
