  • QTcF interval on an average of triplicate ECGs \>450 milliseconds (msec) for males or \>470 msec for females (except when QT prolongation is associated with right or left bundle branch block, in which case enrollment is allowed)
  • Any condition which increases proarrhythmic risk, including hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, congenital Long QT Syndrome
