• Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
• Serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (or ≤ 3.0 x ULN, if patient has Gilbert syndrome)
• AST/SGOT and/or ALT/SGPT ≤ 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5.0 x ULN if the transaminase elevation is due to liver disease involvement

- Patient treated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant who is currently on, or has received immunosuppressive therapy within 90 days prior to start of screening and/or have ≥ Grade 2 graft versus host disease (GvHD).
- Patient with prior history of another active primary malignancy ≤ 2 years before study entry, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer, and carcinoma in situ of uterine cervix
- Any serious active disease or co-morbid medical condition that, according to the investigator’s decision, will substantially increase the risk associated with the subject’s participation in the study.
