Mother-to-child transmission;

- Participants with Cushing's syndrome;

stable replacement dose of thyroid hormone is acceptable provided the thyroid
stimulating hormone (TSH) performed within 30 days of screening is within normal drug
range;

- Recent therapy with agents with significant systemic myelosuppressive, neurotoxic,
pancreatotoxic, hepatotoxic or cytotoxic potential within 3 months of study start or

or ribavirin/interferons or treatment with neurotoxic drugs or drugs that affect
CYP3A4;

- Participants with obstructive liver disease;

- Active alcohol or substance use sufficient, in the Investigator's opinion, to prevent

- Known, clinically significant cardiac conduction system disease.

- Baseline laboratory values measured within 2 weeks prior to initiating study drugs as
follows:

1. calculated creatine clearance <60 mL/min as estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault
equation;

2. total serum lipase ≥ 1.4 times the upper limit of normal;

3. liver enzymes (AST, ALT) ≥ 5 times the upper limit of normal;

4. total serum bilirubin ≥ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal.

- Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation of study drug;

- Prohibited therapies;

- Any other clinical conditions or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the
Investigator, would make the participant unsuitable for study or unable to comply
with the dosing requirements;

- Prisoners or participants who are compulsorily detained (involuntarily incarcerated)
for treatment of either a psychiatric or physical (e.g., infectious disease) illness
must not be enrolled into this study.
