Subjects with leptomeningeal metastases are not allowed.
• •3. Any of the following hematologic abnormalities:
• •* Hemoglobin \< 9.0 g/dL
• •* ANC \< 1500 per mm3
• •* Platelet count \< 100,000 per mm3
• •4. Any of the following serum chemistry abnormalities:
• •* Total bilirubin \> 1.5 × ULN (\>2.5 mg/dL in patients with Gilbert's syndrome)
• •* AST or ALT \> 2.5 × ULN (or \> 5 × ULN for subjects with liver metastasis)
• •* Alkaline phosphatase \> 2.5 × ULN (or \> 5 × ULN for subjects with liver or bone metastasis)
• •* Serum creatinine \> 1.5 × ULN
• •* Proteinuria \> 2.5 g/24 hours or 3+ with urine dipstick
• •* Any other ³ Grade 3 laboratory abnormality at baseline (other than those listed above)
• •5. Significant cardiovascular disease, including:
• •* Clinically symptomatic heart failure. Subjects with a history of heart failure must have an ECHO or MUGA scan to document left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \> 45% prior to start of protocol therapy
• •* Uncontrolled hypertension: blood pressure \>150/95 mmHg on more than 2 antihypertensive medications, on two consecutive measurements obtained at least 24 hours apart. Subjects with a history of hypertension must have been on stable doses of anti-hypertensive drugs for ≥ 2 weeks prior to start of protocol therapy.
• •* Myocardial infarction within 3 months prior to start of protocol therapy
• •6. Subjects with delayed healing of wounds, ulcers, and/or bone fractures
• •7. Serious/active infection or infection requiring parenteral antibiotics
• •8. Inadequate recovery from any prior surgical procedure; major surgical procedure within 4 weeks prior to start of protocol therapy.
• •9. Inability to comply with protocol requirements
• •10. Subjects with a "currently active" second primary malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancers. Subjects are not considered to have a "currently active" malignancy if they have completed anti-cancer therapy and have been disease free for \> 2 years.
• •11. Known concomitant genetic or acquired immune suppression disease such as HIV
• •12. Treatment with systemic hormonal therapy within 3 weeks prior to start of protocol therapy, with the exception of:
• •* Hormonal therapy for appetite stimulation or contraception
• •* Nasal, ophthalmic, inhaled and topical steroid preparations
