- Your first ALS symptom — such as weakness in your arms, legs, speech, swallowing, or breathing — started no more than 24 months before your screening appointment
- Your ALS Function Rating Scale score (a measure of how ALS is affecting daily tasks) is 44 or below at screening — if it is 45 or higher, you may be able to be rescreened about 60 days later

- Your liver enzyme levels (ALT or AST) are three or more times higher than the normal range
- Your bilirubin levels (a measure of liver function) are above the normal range
- You have cognitive (thinking or memory) problems — whether related to ALS or another cause — that would make it difficult to understand the study or give your consent
