If abnormal blood pressure detects&#44; the measurement should be repeated two more times after take a rest for at least 5 minutes each. The last measurement value should be used to determine the subject’s eligibility. 13 12&#45;lead ECG demonstrating QTc >450 msec&#44; a QRS interval >120 msec or with an abnormality considered clinically significant at screening. If QTc exceeds 450 msec&#44; or QRS exceeds 120 msec&#44; the ECG will be repeated two more times and the average of the three QTc or QRS values will be used to determine the subject’s eligibility. 14 Investigation with blood sample shows positive test for HBsAg. 15 Abnormal liver function&#44; ≥ 1.5 times of upper normal limit of reference range for ALT&#44; AST or bilirubin levels at screening laboratory test 16 Have renal creatinine clearance (Clcr) < 30 mL/min based on serum creatinine results at the screening laboratory test Calculation for Creatinine Clearance Creatinine Clearance (mL/min)* = Clcr = 17 History or evidence of habitual use of tobacco or nicotine containing products and cannot abstain for at least 7 days prior to admission and continued until last sample collection in each study period 18 History or evidence of alcoholism&#44; regular alcohol consumption or alcohol containing products and cannot abstain for at least 7 days prior to admission and continued until last sample collection in each study period 19 History or evidence of habitual consume of tea&#44; coffee&#44; xanthine or caffe
