  • Indication of liver disease, defined by serum levels of ALT (SGPT), AST (SGOT), or alkaline phosphatase above 3x upper limit of normal (ULN) as determined during screening.
  • Treatment with immunosuppressive medications (e.g., systemic corticosteroids) within the last 90 days (topical and nasal corticosteroids and inhaled corticosteroids for asthma are permitted) or chemotherapeutic agents for malignancy within the last 3 years.
  • Other clinically significant abnormality on physical, neurological, laboratory, or electrocardiogram (ECG) examination (e.g., atrial fibrillation) that could compromise the study or be detrimental to the participant.
  • Any known hypersensitivity to any of the excipients contained in the study drug or placebo formulation.
  • Other co-morbid or chronic illness beyond that known to be associated with RTT.
  • Subjects who plan to initiate or change pharmacologic or nonpharmacologic intervention during the course of the study.
  • Subjects on potent CYP 3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitors and inducers.
