  • No patients with severely impaired renal function (i.e., estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 30 mL/min or on dialysis)
  • No other prior invasive malignancy, except nonmelanomatous skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix, unless the patient has been disease free and off therapy for that disease for ? 3 years
  • No severe, active comorbidity, defined as any of the following:
  • Transmural myocardial infarction or unstable angina within the past 6 months
  • Evidence of recent myocardial infarction or ischemia manifested as ST elevation of ? 2 mm by EKG performed within the past 14 days
  • New York Heart Association class II-IV congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within the past 12 months
  • History of stroke or transient ischemic attack within the past 6 months

  • Clinically significant peripheral vascular disease
  • Evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
  • Serious or nonhealing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture
  • Abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within the past 28 days

  • No known hypersensitivity to Chinese hamster ovary cell products or other recombinant human antibodies
  • No condition that impairs the ability to swallow pills (e.g., gastrointestinal tract disease resulting in an inability to take oral medication; requirement for IV alimentation; prior surgical procedures affecting absorption; or active peptic ulcer disease)
  • No disease that would obscure toxicity or dangerously alter drug metabolism
  • No concurrent major surgical procedures
  • Recovered from prior therapy
  • Recent resection of recurrent or progressive tumor allowed provided the following criteria are met:
  • Failed prior radiotherapy that was completed ? 42 days ago
  • Residual disease after resection of recurrent glioblastoma is not mandated
  • More than 28 days since prior surgery or open biopsy
  • More than 7 days since prior core or needle biopsy
  • At least 28 days since prior investigational agents
  • At least 14 days since prior vincristine
  • At least 42 days since prior nitrosoureas
  • At least 21 days since prior procarbazine
  • At least 28 days since other prior cytotoxic therapy
  • At least 7 days since prior noncytotoxic agents (e.g., interferon, tamoxifen, thalidomide, or isotretinoin \[except radiosensitizers\])
  • At least 14 days since prior enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs (EIAEDs)
  • Concurrent non-hepatic EIAEDs allowed
