- Patients with laboratory results as follows;
- Number of absolute neutrophil counts (ANC) \< 1.5 x 10\^9/L
- Number of thrombocytes \< 100 x 10\^9/L
- Total bilirubin \> 1.5 x upper limit of normal
- ALAT, ASAT \> 3 x upper limit of normal (in the cases with liver metastasis, \> ALAT, ASAT \> 5 x upper limit of normal)
