  • Sexually abstinent
  • Surgically sterilised (including hysterectomy of female partner)

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any evidence of a concomitant disease assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
• Gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, immunological or hormonal disorders
