9. Adequate cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] >=50%).
10. Patient should have recovered from any toxic effects of previous chemotherapy as
judged by the Investigator.

discretion).
12. Able to comply with study requirement in opinion of Investigator.

11. Any other condition that, in the investigators judgment, might increase the risk to the patient or decrease the chance of obtaining satisfactory data needed to achieve
the objectives of the study.
12. Abnormal baseline findings considered by the investigator to indicate conditions that might affect study endpoints.
