Neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment is not counted, unless progression occurs < 6 months after completion of the treatment. In these cases, neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment is counted as one line.

ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2
adequate liver function
adequate bone marrow function
adequate renal function
adequate contraception
signed informed consent
