                  alkylating agent (dacarbazine, temozolomide) within 28 days.

          -  Patients receiving any medications or substances that are moderate and strong
             inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 and are not able to safely stop these medications are
             excluded from this study; patients must stop strong CYP3A4 inhibiting/inducing
             medications within 5 published half-lives and moderate within 3 published half-lives
             prior to the enrollment.

        Note: dihydropyridinecalcium - channel blockers are permitted for management of underling
        disease

          -  HIV, HCV, HBV positive patients on antiviral drugs are excluded due to the absence of
             previous experience with concurrent use of antiviral medications and the
             investigational drug product to be evaluated in the current study and possible for
             adverse pharmacokinetic and/or pharmacodynamic interactions.

          -  Previous malignant disease (other than the target malignancy to be investigated in
             this trial) within the last 3 years. Note: subjects with a history of cervical
             carcinoma in situ, superficial or non-invasive bladder cancer, or basal cell or
             squamous cell carcinoma in situ previously treated with curative intent are NOT
             excluded.

          -  Rapidly progressive disease which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may predispose
             to inability to tolerate treatment or trial procedures.

          -  Subjects with central nervous system (CNS) metastases due to unknown increase in
             neurotoxicity of metarrestin in case of compromised blood-brain barrier.

          -  Significant acute or chronic infections including tuberculosis with presence of
             clinical symptoms or physical findings.

          -  Patients with a history of any seizures.

          -  Clinically relevant diseases (for example, inflammatory bowel disease) and / or
             uncontrolled medical conditions, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, might
             impair the subject s tolerance or ability to participate in the trial.

          -  Patients with previous gastric bypass, patients receiving nutrition via feeding tubes
             or parenterally, or patients with malabsorptive conditions (damage to the intestine
             from infection, inflammation, trauma, or surgery, celiac disease, Crohn's disease,
             chronic pancreatitis, or cystic fibrosis resulting malabsorption). Patients with
             refractory nausea and vomiting. Note: patients with gastric banding are allowed.

          -  Pregnant women are excluded from this study because metarrestin potential for
             teratogenic or abortifacient effects is unknown. Because there is an unknown but
             potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the
             mother with metarrestin, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated
             with study drug.
