Hematology values must be within the following limits:

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) <1 G/L independent of growth factor support
• Platelets <100 G/L or <50 G/L if bone marrow involvement independent of transfusion support in either situation

Biochemical values within the following limits:

• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
• Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN unless bilirubin rise is due to Gilbert's syndrome or of non-hepatic origin

Men must agree to not donate sperm during and after the study. For females, these restrictions apply for 1 month after the last dose of study drug. For males, these restrictions apply for 3 months after the last dose of study drug.
• Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [Beta-hCG]) or urine pregnancy test at Screening. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are ineligible for this study.
• Sign (or their legally-acceptable representatives must sign) an informed consent document indicating that they understand the purpose of and procedures required for the study, including biomarkers, and are willing to participate in the study

  • Total bilirubin, gamma glutamyltransferase or transaminase levels > 2.5 ULN.
  • Any coexisting medical or psychological condition that would preclude participation in the required study procedures
  • Patient with mental deficiency preventing proper understanding of the requirements of treatment.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
