Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Current exclusion criteria as of 14/06/2022: 1. Any condition or disease detected during the medical interview/physical examination that would render the patient unsuitable for the study, place the patient at undue risk, or interfere with the ability of the patient to complete the study 2.
