* Bilirubin < 20µmol/L, AST < 2.5 times the upper limit of normal
* Calculated creatinine clearance > 30 mL/minute
8. Adequate immunologic function, defined as:

* Serum IgG > 5g/L
* T cell subsets within normal limits
9. Fertile males and females must agree to the use of an adequate form of contraception. Hormonal contraceptives should be supplemented with an additional barrier method. Negative pregnancy test is required in female patients of child-bearing potential.
