• Acceptation and ability to conform to the protocol requirement during all the duration of the investigation including treatment, scheduled visits, clinical and biological examinations and follow up,
• Adequate organ function, as defined by the following:
• AST and ALT < 3.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN),
• Total serum bilirubin < 3 x ULN, (for patients with total serum bilirubin between 1.5 and 3 x ULN, the dose of irinotecan will be adjusted in accordance with the SmPC).
• Serum albumin >30 g/L,
• Hemoglobin >9.0 g/dl,
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >1.5 G/L,
• Platelets >100 G/L,
• Creatinine clearance > 50 mL/min (according to CKD-EPI),
• Normal Kalemia, calcemia, magnesemia
• Women of childbearing potential must agree to use contraception during treatment and for at least 15 months after discontinuation of the experimental treatments.
