within 7 days prior to initiation of therapy (C1D1), and must agree to use effective
birth control during the study prior to the first dose and for at least 6 months after
the last dose (or longer based on local requirements). Female patients are not
considered to be of child-bearing potential if they are post-menopausal (no menses for
12 months without an alternative medical cause) or permanently sterile (hysterectomy,
bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy). Male patients must agree to
abstain or use barrier contraception (i.e. condoms), and avoid sperm donation for the
duration of the study and for 6 months after treatment stops.

males and = 480 ms for females on ECG conducted at rest during Screening.
Note: Patients with an atrioventricular pacemaker or other condition (for example,
right bundle branch block) that renders the QT measurement invalid are an exception
and this criterion does not apply.
9. Ability to take oral medications without medical history of malabsorption or other
chronic gastrointestinal disease, or other conditions that may hamper compliance
and/or absorption of the study agents. Note: Patient may not have a percutaneous
endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube or be receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN).
10. Provision of an archival tissue block, or 10 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE)

initiation of therapy; within 2 weeks if cytotoxic agents were given weekly, within 6
weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C; within 5 half-lives for targeted agents with
half-lives and pharmacodynamic effects lasting < 5 days; or failure to recover from
toxic effects of any previous therapy. A drug that has not received regulatory
approval for any indication within 14 or 21 days of treatment for a
non-myelosuppressive or myelosuppressive agent, respectively: patients must recover
for previous cancer therapy, and are ready to proceed with further cancer therapy.
2. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including but not limited to:

attack within 6 months before study enrollment
- lesions invading or encasing any major blood vessels and cavitating pulmonary
lesion(s) or known endotracheal or endobronchial disease manifestation
- Uncontrolled hypertension defined as sustained blood pressure (BP) > 140 mm Hg
systolic or > 90 mm Hg diastolic despite optimal antihypertensive treatment
- history or current evidence of uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia
- congenital long QT syndrome, or any known history of torsade de pointes, or
family history of unexplained sudden death
- clinically significant bleeding or active gastric or duodenal ulcer
- chronic diarrhea diseases considered to be clinically significant
- Abdominal fistula, GI perforation, bowel obstruction, or intra-abdominal abscess
within 6 months before first dose of study treatment, or any gastrointestinal
disorders associated with a high risk of perforation or fistula formation.
- other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory
abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation, or
may interfere with the interpretation of study results, and in the judgment of
the Investigator would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
Note: Subjects with a diagnosis of incidental, subsegmental pulmonary embolism or deep
vein thrombosis are allowed if stable, asymptomatic, and treated with a stable dose of
permitted anticoagulation (see exclusion criterion #6) for at least 1 week before
first dose of study treatment.

surgery before first dose of study treatment. Subjects with clinically relevant
ongoing complications from prior surgery are not eligible.
7. Currently receiving an investigational drug in a clinical trial or participating in
any other type of medical research judged not to be scientifically or medically
compatible with this study. If a patient is currently enrolled in a clinical trial
