Normal range for these labs will typically be 5 - 40 IU/L for AST; 7 - 56 IU/L for ALT; 0.2 - 1.2 mg/dL for bilirubin. Subjects will be excluded if values are x 2-x 2.5 the upper limit
Evidence of hematopoietic, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, neurologic, psychiatric, dermatologic, immune disorder, or other disease that may interfere with assessment of safety or efficacy of vaccine activity as indicated in study objectives
