  • Patients who have undergone craniotomy with incomplete resection are eligible
  • Clinician's opinion that whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) will be beneficial
  • ECOG PS 0-2
  • Age above 18 years
  • Serum bilirubin \< 2 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • AST and ALT \< 2 times ULN (\< 5 times ULN if liver metastases are present)

  • Able to take oral medication
  • Not pregnant or nursing
  • Negative pregnancy test
  • Fertile patients must use effective contraception
