               -  CNS lymphoma or a history of meningeal carcinomatosis

               -  Prior treatment with an HDAC inhibitor (unless for treatment of Mycosis fungoides

               -  Malabsorption

               -  Corticosteroids > 20 mg prednisone equivalent per day (topical, inhaled, or nasal

               -  Uncontrolled illness including but not limited to: ongoing or active infection,
                  symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV
                  heart failure), unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, and psychiatric
                  illness that would limit compliance with study requirements

               -  Risk factors for, or use of drugs known to prolong QTc interval or that may be
                  associated

               -  QTc prolongation (defined as a QTc ≥ 450 msecs) or other significant ECG
                  abnormalities including 2nd degree AV block type II, 3rd degree AV block, or
                  bradycardia (ventricular rate less than 50 beats/min). If the screening ECG has a
                  QTc ≥ 450 msecs, the ECG can be submitted for a centralized, cardiologic
                  evaluation.

               -  History of myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndromes (including unstable
                  angina), coronary angioplasty and/or stenting within the past 6 months.

               -  For patients with history of myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure,
                  abnormal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and/or prior anthracycline
                  exposure, LVEF < 50%, as assessed by ventriculography (nuclear or heart
                  catheterization) or echocardiogram, when performed within 28 days of first dose
                  of study drug.

               -  For patients with history of coronary artery disease, a cardiac stress test
                  (either exercise or pharmacologic) that demonstrates clinically significant
                  abnormalities when performed within 28 days of first dose of study drug.

               -  Known HIV infection.

               -  Other medical or psychiatric illness or organ dysfunction which, in the opinion
                  of the investigator, would either compromise the patient's safety or interfere
                  with the evaluation of the safety of the study agent.

               -  Pregnant or lactating women (female patients of child-bearing potential must have
                  a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days of first day of drug dosing, or,
                  if positive, a pregnancy ruled out by ultrasound).

               -  Women of child-bearing potential, or sexually active men, unwilling to use
                  adequate contraceptive protection during the course of the study.
