  • Measurable or evaluable disease by RECIST criteria
  • ECOG performance status 0-1
  • Adequate hepatic/renal function and platelet count
  • If previously treated with an anthracycline, anthracenedione, or trastuzumab, must have left ventricular ejection fraction \> 50%
Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria
  • More than 2 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease (prior adjuvant chemotherapy is allowed)
  • Tumor progression during treatment with paclitaxel (refractory to paclitaxel)
  • Taxane-based regimen within 12 weeks
  • Any systemic therapy for cancer within 4 weeks
  • Anti-platelet therapy within 2 weeks, other than low dose aspirin prophylaxis therapy
  • Therapeutic anticoagulation therapy except for low dose warfarin (eg, 1 mg by mouth per day)
  • Radiation therapy within 3 weeks
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks (central line placement is allowed)
  • Prolongation of PT or aPTT \> the ULN or fibrinogen \< the LLN
  • History of or active central nervous system metastatic disease
  • Any other active malignancy
  • Active or chronically recurrent bleeding (eg, active peptic ulcer disease)
  • Clinically significant infection
  • Active autoimmune disease requiring immunosuppressive therapy
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular disease or condition
