• •* Phototherapy for AD
• •3. Administration, within 14 days before baseline or within a period of 5 times the elimination half-life of the medication before baseline, whichever is longer, of any medication that is a known inducer or inhibitor of either one or more of the following CYP enzymes: CYP3A, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYD2D6, and CYP1A2. Patients who are on any of these medications at the time of screening and cannot be safely taken off these medications will be excluded from the study.
• •4. Any contraindication to one or more of the following drugs, according to the applicable labeling:
• •* Midazolam
• •* Omeprazole

• •* Vegetables from the mustard green family (eg, broccoli)
• •* Charbroiled meats
• •* Caffeinated beverages, foods or drugs containing caffeine Patients who are not willing to abstain from the consumption of these food items and/or beverages for certain periods during the study will also be excluded
• •6. History of excessive consumption of beverages containing caffeine (more than 4 cups or glasses per day). Patients who are not willing to abstain from the consumption of caffeine during certain periods of the study will also be excluded
• •7. History or presence of alcohol or drug abuse within last 2 years
• •8. History of smoking within last 2 years
• •9. Poor metabolizers for CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 based on genotyping
• •10. Presence of any one or more of the following lab abnormalities at screening:
• •* Platelet count ≤100 x 10\^3/µL
• •* Neutrophils ≤1 x 10\^3/µL
• •* Creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) \>10 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
• •* International normalized ratio (INR) ≥2
• •11. Active chronic or acute infection requiring treatment with systemic antibiotics, antivirals, antiprotozoals, or antifungals within 2 weeks before the screening visit, or superficial skin infections within 1 week before the screening visit
• •12. Known or suspected immunodeficiency, including history of invasive opportunistic infections (eg, tuberculosis, histoplasmosis, listeriosis, coccidioidomycosis, pneumocystosis, aspergillosis) despite infection resolution, or otherwise recurrent infections of abnormal frequency or prolonged duration suggesting an immune compromised status, as judged by the investigator
• •13. History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or positive HIV serology at screening
• •14. Positive with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), or hepatitis C antibody (Hep C Ab) at the screening visit. NOTE: Patients who are HBsAg negative and HBsAb positive are considered immune after a natural infection has cleared or they have been vaccinated against hepatitis B. Therefore, they are acceptable for the study.
• •15. History of malignancy within 5 years before the baseline visit, except completely treated in situ carcinoma of the cervix, and completely treated and resolved non-metastatic squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin
• •16. History of clinical endoparasitosis (ie, helminth infection) within 12 months before the baseline visit, or high risk of helminth infection, such as residence within or recent travel (within 12 months before the baseline visit) to areas endemic for endoparasitoses, where the circumstances are consistent with parasite exposure (eg, extended stay, rural or slum areas, lack of running water, consumption of uncooked, undercooked, or otherwise potentially contaminated food, close contact with carriers and vectors, etc), unless subsequent medical assessments (eg, stool exam, blood tests, etc) have ruled out the possibility of parasite infection/infestation
• •17. Female patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study
• •18. Women who are using any form of hormonal contraceptives (eg, oral, injectables, implants, patches, rings, hormone-impregnated intrauterine devices \[IUDs\]) for birth control
• •19. Women unwilling to use adequate birth control, if of reproductive potential and sexually active.
