  • Concurrent treatment with other anticancer agents
  • Pregnant and/or lactating female
  • Patients with known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection HIV testing will be performed at the Screening visit for patients who have not been tested within 6 months of receiving study drug, as well as those patients who have had exposure or have been transfused with blood products that were not appropriately screened.
  • Patients with known active hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C infection Hepatitis testing will be performed at the Screening visit for patients who have not been tested within 6 months of receiving study drug, as well as those patients who have had exposure or have been transfused with blood products that were not appropriately screened.
