  • Known immunodeficiency
  • Females who were pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or lactating (Women who, in the opinion of the investigator, were of childbearing potential were to have a negative pregnancy test before study drug administration.)
  • Subjects taking part in another study involving an investigational or licensed drug or device in the 3 months preceding enrollment or up to Week 12 during this study
  • Previous G17DT treatment
