by CT or MRI
- Patients must have at least one "target lesion" to be used to assess response on this

obtained to confirm persistence at least 90 days following completion of radiation
therapy

carcinoma; all hormonal therapy must be discontinued at least 4 weeks prior to
registration

- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >= 50%
- Fasting cholesterol less than or equal to 300 mg/dl; fasting triglycerides less than
or equal to 300 mg/dl
- Prothrombin time (PT) such that international normalized ratio (INR) is less than or
equal to 1.5 x ULN (or an in range INR, usually between 2 and 3, if a patient is on a
stable dose of therapeutic warfarin) and a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) less than
or equal to 1.5 times the upper limit of normal
- The patient must provide study-specific informed consent prior to study entry and, for
patients treated in the United States (U.S.), authorization permitting release of
personal health information
- Diabetic patients (type I or II diabetes mellitus) must have baseline hemoglobin
(Hb)A1c levels NOT higher than 8.5% at study entry

150 mmHG or diastolic pressure < 90 mmHG at study entry
- Note: ULN is institutional or laboratory upper limit of normal

within 28 days of registration; the patient and her sexual partner(s) must agree to
use adequate contraception when sexually active for the duration of the study and for

following menarche and until becoming post-menopausal unless permanently sterile;
permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and
bilateral oophorectomy; a postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months
