4. Clinically significant NCI-CTCAE v5.0 Grade = 1 (allowing Grade = 2 alopecia) ongoing
toxicities from previous anticancer treatment.
5. Severe infection or severe traumatic systemic disorders.
6. Symptomatic or uncontrolled metastasis to central nervous system (CNS) (a patient with
asymptomatic CNS metastasis may participate in the study if systemic corticosteroids
were discontinued = 4 weeks prior and the patient is radiologically and neurologically
stable for = 4 weeks).
7. Severe neurological or psychiatric disorders that might have an impact on study
results in the opinion of the investigator.
8. Pregnant or lactating women or patients planning a pregnancy during the study period.
9. Participation in another clinical trial within 30 days prior to the 1st treatment.
10. History of bleeding or digestive disorders:

non-GI fistula, perforation, intra-abdominal abscess, clinical symptoms and signs
of GI obstruction, patients requiring parenteral fluids or nutrition, history of
digestive disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease
- Evidence of pneumoperitoneum unexplained by recent surgery or paracentesis
11. Treatment with biguanides (e.g., metformin) within 2 weeks prior to the 1st treatment
or anticipated required treatment with biguanides during the study period.
12. Patients requiring continuous treatment with systemic corticosteroids. However, the
following will be permitted:
- Use of local corticosteroids such as local intra-articular, intra-nasal,
intra-ocular, or inhaled corticosteroids or temporary use of systemic corticosteroids
for the treatment and prevention of adverse events (AEs) or allergic reactions to
contrast agents will be permitted.
13. Patients with HIV and other severe diseases that would limit a patient's participation
in the study in the opinion of the investigator (medically controlled diseases will be
permitted).
