Prior radiotherapy must be completed 30 days before study entry. Lesions that have been radiated cannot be included as sites of measurable disease unless clear tumor progression has been documented in these lesions since the end of radiation therapy.
- At least one uni-dimensionally measurable lesion meeting Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Positron emission tomography \[PET\] scans and ultrasounds may not be used.
- Antitumoral hormonal treatment must be discontinued prior to enrollment.
- Estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months.
- Participant compliance and geographic proximity that allow adequate follow-up.
- Adequate organ function
- Female participants of childbearing potential must test negative for pregnancy within 7 days of enrollment based on a urine and/or serum pregnancy test and agree to use a reliable method of birth control during and for 6 months following the last dose of study drug.
- Participants must sign an informed consent document.

- Are unable to interrupt aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents for a 5-day period (8-day period for long-acting agents such as piroxicam), unless the Creatinine Clearance is greater than or equal to 80 ml/min.
- Have central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
- Have clinically relevant (by physical exam) third-space fluid collections (for example, ascites or pleural effusions) that cannot be controlled by drainage or other procedures prior to study entry.
