At least one evaluable lesion according to RECIST v1.1
Age ≥ 18 years
ECOG performance status 0 - 2

Adequate organ function, defined as all of the following:

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/mm3. (ANC > 1000/mm3 may be considered in special circumstances such as benign cyclical neutropenia as judged by the investigator and in discussion with the coordinating investigator)

(Patients with Gilbert's syndrome total Bilirubin must be ≤ 4 times institutional upper limit of normal) f. Aspartate amino transferase (AST) or alanine amino transferase (ALT) ≤ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) (if related to liver metastases ≤ 5 times ULN)
