  • At least 4 weeks since prior radiotherapy and recovered.
  • Prior biologic or immunotherapeutic regimens allowed.
  • Prior regional chemotherapy regimens (e.g., isolated limb perfusion) allowed but only 1 prior regional chemotherapy regimen allowed if all target lesions are within the prior regional treatment field.
  • No concurrent enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs including, but not limited to, any of the following: phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, rifampin or Hypericum perforatum (St. John's wort).

  • No concurrent grapefruit or grapefruit juice.
  • No concurrent combination antiretroviral therapy for HIV-positive patients.
  • Concurrent prophylactic anticoagulation therapy (e.g., low-dose warfarin) allowed provided prothrombin time (PT) international normalized ratio (INR) \< 1.1 times upper limits of normal (ULN).

  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) =\< 2.5 times upper limit of normal.
  • No peripheral neuropathy \> grade 2.
  • At least 5 years since prior chemotherapy for other types of cancer.
