2. Female subjects of childbearing potential who do not agree to use a highly effective method of birth control in conjunction with male barrier method contraception (i.e., a condom with spermicide) from the time of signing the ICF until 5-7 days after Discharge.
3. Female subjects who are pregnant or breastfeeding. This will be confirmed at Screening and at each Admission. Any female subject who becomes pregnant during this study will be withdrawn.

All subjects will be informed that they are free to quit smoking and withdraw from the study at any time. Any subject who decides to quit smoking will be directed to appropriate stop smoking services
9. Subjects who have a significant history of alcoholism or drug/chemical abuse within 24 months prior to Screening, as determined by the PI or the appropriately qualified designee.

11. Subjects who:

    11.1. have serum hepatitis 11.2. are carriers of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) 11.3. are carriers of the hepatitis C antibody 11.4. have a positive result for the test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies.

19. Subjects who have any clinically relevant abnormal findings on the physical examination, medical history, ECG, lung function tests (forced expiratory volume in 1 second/ forced vital capacity [FEV1/FVC]), or clinical laboratory panel, unless deemed not clinically significant by the PI or the appropriately qualified designee.
20. Subjects who have, or who have had a history of, any clinically significant neurological, gastrointestinal, renal (including urinary tract infection or nephrolithiasis), hepatic, cardiovascular, psychiatric, respiratory, metabolic, endocrine, haematological or other major disorder that, in the opinion of the PI or the appropriately qualified designee, would jeopardise the safety of the subject or impact on the validity of the study results.
