3. Pyloric obstruction or any other condition that can cause long-term chronic nausea, persistent recurrent vomiting (≥3 vomit episodes in 24 hours) or diarrhea.
4. Patients who have recently developed gastrointestinal bleeding (i.e., a history of hematemesis, hematochezia, or melena within the past 3 months) without evidence of recovery confirmed by endoscopy or colonoscopy; or patients with evidence of risk of gastric bleeding.
5. Patients with active gastrointestinal disease including, but not limited to, gastric or duodenal ulcers, acute gastric or intestinal perforation, acute necrotizing pancreatitis, ulcerative enteritis, congenital megacolon or Crohn's disease.
6. Patients requiring long-term treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs); patients who are using anticoagulants such as heparin at therapeutic doses or vitamin K antagonists (except for prophylaxis).

In case of positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or positive hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) during the screening period, further hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA titer testing must be performed (HBV DNA≤200 IU/mL is required). Patients who are positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) must receive further HCV RNA testing (no higher than the upper limit of the detection value at their study site); patients may be enrolled in the study only after active hepatitis B or C requiring treatment has been excluded.

17. Known history of Grade 3 to 4 hypersensitivity reactions to any biological product, history of life threatening hypersensitivity reactions, or known hypersensitivity to components of SG1906 drug product (Grade ≥3 hypersensitivity reactions).
