• Hemoglobin < 11.6 g/dL or > 15.5 g/dL. If the laboratory reports a single, non-clinically significant result for any of these studies and is the only excluding factor it may be repeated 1 week later if the patient wishes. Normalization of that laboratory study will then be considered non-exclusionary
• Hematocrit < 34.9% or > 44.9%. If the laboratory reports a single, non-clinically significant result for any of these studies and is the only excluding factor it may be repeated 1 week later if the patient wishes. Normalization of that laboratory study will then be considered non-exclusionary
• White blood cell count < 3.4 X 10^9/L or > 10.5 X 10^9/L. If the laboratory reports a single, non-clinically significant result for any of these studies and is the only excluding factor it may be repeated 1 week later if the patient wishes. Normalization of that laboratory study will then be considered non-exclusionary
• Platelet count < 150 X 10^ 9/L or > 450 X 10^9/L. If the laboratory reports a single, non-clinically significant result for any of these studies and is the only excluding factor it may be repeated 1 week later if the patient wishes. Normalization of that laboratory study will then be considered non-exclusionary
• Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of the treatment
