Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Gender : male or female

2. Age : 18 - 65 years, inclusive

3. Body Mass Index (BMI) : 18.0 - 30.0 kg/m2, inclusive

4. Weight : 55 - 105 kg, inclusive

5. Female subjects of childbearing potential must be non-pregnant and non-lactating, and
have a negative pregnancy test at screening and (each) admission to the clinical
research center

6. Females of child-bearing potential, with a fertile male sexual partner, should be
willing to use adequate contraception from screening until 90 days after the follow-up
visit. Adequate contraception is defined as using hormonal contraceptives or an
intrauterine device combined with at least 1 of the following forms of contraception:
a diaphragm or cervical cap, or a condom.

7. Males should be willing to use adequate contraception and not donate sperm from first
admission to the clinical research center until 90 days after the follow-up visit.
Adequate contraception for the male subject and his female partner, is defined as
using hormonal contraceptives or an intrauterine device combined with at least 1 of
the following forms of contraception: a diaphragm or cervical cap, or a condom.

8. All non-regular medication (including over the counter medication, health supplements,
and herbal remedies such as St. John's Wort extract) must have been stopped at least
14 days prior to (the first) admission to the clinical research center. An exception
is made for paracetamol (acetaminophen), which is allowed up to admission to the
clinical research center. Other exceptions are multivitamins and vitamin C, which are
allowed up to 7 days before admission to the clinical research center.

9. All regular non-topical medication must have been stopped at least 30 days prior to
(the first) admission the clinical research center. An exception is made for hormonal
contraceptives, which may be used throughout the study.

10. Ability and willingness to abstain from alcohol, methylxanthine-containing beverages
or food (coffee, tea, cola, chocolate, "powerdrinks"), grapefruit (juice) and tobacco
products from 48 h prior to each admission to in the clinical research center

11. Medical history without major pathology as judged by the PI

12. Normal resting supine blood pressure and pulse showing no clinically relevant
deviations as judged by the PI.

13. Computerized (12-lead) electrocardiogram (ECG) recording without signs of clinically
relevant pathology or showing no clinically relevant deviations as judged by the PI.

14. All values for clinical laboratory tests of blood and urine within the normal range or
showing no clinically relevant deviations as judged by the PI. Hb, Hct, RBC count and
thrombocytes should not exceed the upper limit of normal. Minor deviations can be
accepted at the discretion of the PI

15. Willing and able to sign the ICF

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Evidence of clinically relevant pathology

2. Mental handicap

3. History of relevant drug and/or food allergies, and/or latex allergy

4. Smoking more than 10 cigarettes, 2 cigars or 2 pipes daily; the use of tobacco
products in the 48 hours (2 days) prior to each admission to the clinical research
center is not allowed.

5. History of alcohol or drug abuse or drug addiction (including soft drugs like cannabis
products)

6. Positive drug screen (opiates, methadone, cocaine, amphetamines [including ecstasy],
cannabinoids, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants and alcohol)

approximately 250 mL of beer, 100 mL of wine or 35 mL of spirits)

8. Consumption of any foods containing poppy seeds within 48 hours (2 days) prior to each
admission to the clinical research center as this could cause a false positive drug
screen result

antibodies or anti-HIV 1 and 2 antibodies

10. Participation in a drug study within 60 days prior to the screening visit in the
current study. Participation in more than 3 other drug studies (for men) and more than

administration in the current study

11. Donation or loss of more than 100 mL of blood within 60 days prior to the first drug
administration. Donation or loss of more than 1.5 liters of blood (for men) / more
than 1.0 liters of blood (for women) in the 10 months prior to the first drug
administration in the current study.

12. Strenuous exercise within 96 hours (4 days) prior to each admission to the clinical
research center.

13. Significant and/or acute illness within 5 days prior to the first drug administration
