               3. Neutrophil count >1,500/mm3

               4. Platelet count >100,000/mm3

               5. Total bilirubin <1.5 mg/dL

               8. Creatinine clearance estimate by the Cockcroft-Gault method >50 mL/min

          9. Able to take capsules orally.

         10. No electrocardiographic abnormalities within 28 days before enrollment that would
             clinically preclude the execution of the study, as judged by the investigator.

         11. Voluntary written informed consent.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Serious drug hypersensitivity or a history of drug allergy

          4. Uncontrolled hypertension

          5. Serious complications (e.g., pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonitis, heart
             failure, renal failure, hepatic failure, or poorly controlled diabetes)

         14. Thrombosis, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, or pulmonary embolism

         15. Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or clinically significant traumatic injury
             within 4 weeks

         16. Long-term daily treatment with aspirin (>325 mg/day)

         17. History or evidence of inherited bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy with the risk of
