5. Enrolment in any other clinical protocol or investigational study with an interventional agent or assessments that may interfere with study procedures.
6. Weight loss \>10% over past 6 months (weight 6 months ago minus weight today, divided by weight 6 months ago) x 100 = weight loss%.
7. Blood transfusions within 2 weeks of blood collection for the trial.
