Exclusion

  • Has any clinically significant abnormality identified in the screening physical examination, laboratory tests or electrocardiogram which, in the judgement of the investigator, would preclude safe completion of the study
  • Is female of childbearing potential
  • Has any of these cardiac conditions: uncontrollable or symptomatic arrhythmias, unstable angina, sick sinus syndrome or second or third degree heart block (unless treated with a permanent, functioning pacemaker), bradycardia (heart rate \<55 bpm), and stroke within three months of study screening, and history of myocardial infarction.

  • Has a history of bronchospastic disease not undergoing active therapy in whom, in the investigator's opinion, treatment with study medication could provoke bronchospasm
  • Has evidence of any of the following clinically significant diseases that could impair the absorption, metabolism, or excretion of orally-administered medication:

  • Has any known contraindication to ACE inhibitors, alpha- or beta-blocker treatment
  • Has systemic disease, including cancer, with reduced (\<12 months) life expectancy
  • Has used an investigational drug within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) preceding the first dose of study medication
