<!-- -->

• Serum total bilirubin within 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for the institution, with a trend downwards (biliary drainage is allowed for biliary obstruction),

iii. Renal- Serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN

iv. Cardiac- Normal ECG or ECG without any clinically significant findings as defined by the treating physician

• Women of childbearing potential must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for at least 7 months after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy

• Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• History of any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of protocol therapy or that might affect the interpretation of the results of the study or that puts the subject at high risk for treatment complications, in the opinion of the treating physician.
