• Women of childbearing age Women who have not undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy, women who have not undergone spontaneous menopause for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., menstruate at any time during the last 24 months. However, amenorrhea after chemotherapy does not exclude the possibility of pregnancy).
