Confirmed platelet count outside the normal range at the screening visit. Any of the following confirmed at the screening visit: ALT > 5.0 × ULN TBL > 1.5 mg/dL (TBL > 1.5 mg/dL is allowed if conjugated bilirubin is < 1.5 × ULN) INR > 1.3 ALP > 1.5 × ULN (unless the ALP elevation is not from hepatic origin as determined by a bone-specific ALP)
