partial thromboplastin time (PTT) = 1.5 × ULN if not receiving anticoagulation
therapy.
Note: For subjects on anticoagulants, exceptions to these parameters are allowed if
they are within the intended or expected range for their therapeutic use. Participants
must have no history of clinically significant active bleeding (within 14 days of
first dose of study drug) or pathological condition that carries high risk of bleeding
(for example, tumor involving major vessels or known esophageal varices).
15. Timing requirements with respect to prior therapy and surgery are as follows:
- At least 2 weeks or at least 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, must have
elapsed since administration of the last dose of any prior anticancer therapy
(including investigational agents).
- Subjects must be recovered from any clinically relevant effects of major surgery,
laparoscopic procedure, or significant traumatic injury. Note: Central line
placement, subcutaneous port placement, core biopsy, fine needle aspiration, and
bone marrow biopsy/aspiration are not considered major surgeries.
- For subjects who have received radiation therapy within 2 weeks of study start,
health status must have returned to pre-radiation therapy baseline, and/or be
adequate for study start, in the opinion of the Investigator. Radiation therapy
cannot involve target lesions unless approved by the Sponsor.
16. Clinically significant toxicity related to prior therapy must have returned to = Grade
1 by CTCAE by approximately 14 days prior to study start. Exceptions include Grade 2
alopecia and other Grade 2 toxicities determined to be stable and irreversible by the
