  5. ECOG performance status 0 - 2
  6. adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/ul platelets ≥ 100,000/ul AST/ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN, ≤ 5.0 x ULN if liver involvement Total serum bilirubin ≤ 3.0 mg/dL
  7. signed written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. severe co-morbid illness and/or active infections
  2. pregnant or lactating women
  3. active CNS metastases not controllable with radiotherapy or corticosteroids
  4. active and uncontrollable bleeding from gastrointestinal tract
  5. known history of hypersensitivity to study drugs
  6. patients who are already on statin treatment for hyperlipidemia control (if ≥ 1 year interval from the last statin dose, the patient is eligible for study entry)
