Major surgery in the last 6 months
Psychiatric disorder that could compromise the ability of the patient to cooperate with the study
Serum bilirubin higher to the upper limit of normal attributable to factors other than hemolysis or Gilbert's Syndrome
Use of restricted products known to strongly inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 metabolism within 5 days prior to Prior Day 1 dosing, or to strongly induce cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) metabolism within 28 days prior to Day 1 dosing, or to strongly inhibit P-glycoprotein transporter within 5 days prior to Day 1 dosing, or digoxin within 5 days prior to Day 1 dosing.

Allergy to sulfonamides if characterized by acute hemolytic anemia, anaphylaxis, rash of erythema multiforme type or Stevens-Johnson Syndrome
Any other medical or psychological condition deemed by the Investigator to be likely to interfere with a patient's ability to participate in the study
Patients will not be permitted to enter the Extension Period if: The patient experienced AEs during the Core Period that are considered by the treating Investigator or the Sponsor's designated Medical Monitor to pose a significant safety risk to the patient if treatment were to be extended
