Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Non-pregnant, non-lactating female subjects of childbearing potential who are heterosexually active and non-sterile male subjects with female sexual partners of childbearing potential agree to use a highly effective method of contraception for the duration of the study, including the long-term safety follow-up period. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as one that results in a low failure rate (i.e., \<1% per year) when used consistently and correctly, such as oral/injectable/inserted/implanted/transdermal contraceptives, condom with diaphragm, condom with spermicide, diaphragm with spermicide, intrauterine hormone- releasing system, or intrauterine device (IUD), or sexual abstinence.
