Clinical diagnosis/history or evidence of any medical condition that would expose a subject to an undue risk of a significant AE or interfere with assessments of safety and efficacy during the course of the trial, as determined by the investigator's clinical judgment Any abnormal laboratory tests that are medically significant and would impact the safety of the subjects or the interpretation of the trial results, as determined by the investigator's judgment Anticipated need for hospitalisation or out-patient surgery during the first 15 days after the first trial medication application.
