Exclusion Criteria
  • Patients who have had systemic therapy or radiotherapy within 3 weeks prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 3 weeks earlier.
  • Patients receiving any other investigational agents concurrently.
  • Patients with known brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent diseases such as, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
