• Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN OR direct bilirubin =< ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels > 1.5 x ULN (at time of registration and within 4 weeks prior to initiating on-protocol treatment) * Creatinine clearance should be calculated per institutional standard. For participants with a baseline calculated creatinine clearance below normal institutional laboratory values, a measured baseline creatinine clearance should be determined. Individuals with higher values felt to be consistent with inborn errors of metabolism will be considered on a case-by-case basis
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT]) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT]) =< 3 x ULN (at time of registration and within 4 weeks prior to initiating on-protocol treatment)

Palliative radiation therapy must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to start of treatment. The radiotherapy must not be to a lesion that is included as measurable disease
• Additional cancer-specific inclusion criteria must also be met
