  11. Willingly provides written, informed consent.
  12. Has resolution or stabilization of acute toxicity from prior therapy to Grade <2 - except Grade 2 neuropathy
  13. If patient has human immune deficiency virus (HIV) infection, it is controlled with undetectable viral load with antiretroviral treatment.
  14. If patient has hepatitis C infection and received antiviral treatment, has a negative viral load at Screening
  15. If patient has chronic hepatitis B infection and is receiving antiviral treatment, has a negative viral load at Screening.
  16. Is willing and able to comply with all protocol required visits and assessments

EXCLUSION CRITERIA

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Is unable to take oral medication or malabsorption syndromes potentially interfering with medication absorption (e.g., short bowel syndrome or chronic, partial bowel obstruction)
  2. Has history or presence of clinically significant abnormal 12 lead ECG results, in the investigator's opinion
  3. Has current brain metastasis
  4. Has prolonged QTc (with Fridericia's correction) of >480 msec in men and women performed at Screening

  8. Has an electrolyte disturbance, such as uncorrected hypokalemia/hyperkalemia, hypomagnesemia, or hypocalcemia. Patients can be enrolled following successful correction of an electrolyte disturbance.
  9. Is currently using any drugs included in the prohibited medications list in the protocol (including those that can prolong QTc) that cannot be discontinued
  10. Has known hypersensitivity to any of the components of study treatments
  11. Has other primary cancer requiring treatment within the last 3 years, except for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, ductal carcinoma in situ, or completely excised squamous or basal cell carcinoma
