screening, and at least 4 weeks after completion of last anti-cancer therapy.

study period.

metastases have been treated by surgery and/or radiation therapy and/or gamma knife,
the subject has been tapered to a dose of 10 mg of prednisone (or equivalent) or less
of corticosteroids for at least 2 weeks before the first dose, and the subject is
neurologically stable. Patients with leptomeningeal disease are excluded.

time in the past

mg of prednisone daily or equivalent); however, topical, ophthalmologic, and
inhalational steroids are permitted
- Patients with an uncontrollable bleeding disorder
- Patients known to be positive for human immunodeficiency virus and/or history of
hepatitis B, or C infections or is known to be positive for hepatitis B antigen
(HBsAg)/hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA or hepatitis C antibody (Hep C Ab) or RNA.
- Patients with any other concurrent uncontrolled illness, including mental illness or
substance abuse, which may interfere with the ability of the subject to cooperate and
participate in the study.
- Additional criteria may apply
