Female patients must be postmenopausal, surgically sterile or they must agree to use acceptable methods of birth control. Male patients must be surgically sterile or agree to use an acceptable method of contraception. * Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test(B-hCG)within 72 hours prior to first study drug administration Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to comply with study and follow-up procedures * Women who are pregnant or lactating * Treatment with chemotherapy, hormonal therapy(except leuprolide for prostate cancer), immunotherapy, biologic therapy, or radiation therapy as cancer therapy within 4 weeks before initiation of study treatment.
