  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1.5 x 109/L
  • Platelet count \> 100 x 109/L
  • Hemoglobin \> 9.0 g/dL
  • Serum bilirubin \< 1.5 x ULN
  • AST/ALT (SGOT/SGPT) \< or = 2.5 x ULN for the reference laboratory or \< 5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastases
  • Serum creatinine \< or = 1.5 x ULN
  • Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) within normal baseline levels
  • Male patients should have a detectable level of testosterone
  • Female patients who are known to be capable of conception should have a negative serum pregnancy test (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin β-hCG\]) within 1 week of starting the study.
  • All potentially fertile patients will agree to use an effective form of contraception during the study and for 90 days following the last dose of ME-143 (an effective form of contraception is defined as an oral contraceptive or a double barrier method).
  • At least 4 weeks must have elapsed prior to Day 1 Cycle 1 since prior chemotherapy (6 weeks for carmustine or mitomycin C), investigational drug or biologic therapy and any toxicity associated with these treatments has recovered to ≤ NCI-CTCAE Grade 1.
  • At least 21 days must have elapsed prior to Day 1 Cycle 1, radiotherapy (limited palliative radiation is allowed \> 2 weeks), immunotherapy or following major surgery and any surgical incision should be completely healed

Exclusion

  • Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Tumor involvement of the Central Nervous System (CNS) Patients with treated and stable CNS metastases may be eligible to participate after discussion and approval from the Medical Monitor
  • Uncontrolled infection or systemic disease.
  • Clinically significant cardiac disease not well controlled with medication (e.g., congestive heart failure, symptomatic coronary artery disease e.g. angina, and cardiac arrhythmias) or myocardial infarction within the last 12 months.
  • Patients with QTc of \> 470 msec on screening ECG. (If a patient has QTc interval \>470 msec on screening ECG, the screening ECG may be repeated twice (at least 24 hours apart). The average QTc from the 3 screening ECGs must be \<470 msec in order for the patient to be eligible for the study.
  • Any major surgery, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy within the last 21 days (limited palliative radiation is allowed \> 2 weeks).
  • Chemotherapy regimens with delayed toxicity within the last 4 weeks (or within 6 weeks for prior nitrosourea or mitomycin C). Chemotherapy regimens given continuously or on a weekly basis with limited potential or delayed toxicity within the last 2 weeks.
  • No concurrent systemic chemotherapy or biologic therapy is allowed.
  • Known hypersensitivity to any components of ME-143 study drug product.
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Hepatitis B or C (active, previously treated or both).
  • History of solid organ transplantation.
  • Psychiatric disorder or social or geographic situation that would preclude study participation.
