a. A scan to confirm the absence of brain metastases is not required. b. Patients with
radiological evidence of stable brain metastases are eligible, providing that they are
asymptomatic and: i. Do not require corticosteroids, or ii. Have previously been
treated with corticosteroids, with clinical and radiological evidence of stabilisation
at least 10 days after discontinuation of steroids iii. The patient can receive a
stable dose of corticosteroids before and during the study as long as these were

15. Patients considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical
disorder, non-malignant systemic disease or active, uncontrolled infection. Examples
include, but are not limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 3
months) myocardial infarction, unstable spinal cord compression (untreated and
unstable for at least 28 days prior to study entry), superior vena cava syndrome,
extensive bilateral lung disease on HRCT scan
16. Any psychiatric disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent.
17. Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) < institutional lower limit of normal, when:
i. Prior treatment with anthracyclines (excluding liposomal doxorubicin) ii. Prior
