• No QTc prolongation (defined as a QTc interval >= 500 msecs) or other significant ECG abnormalities
• No condition (e.g., gastrointestinal tract disease resulting in an inability to take oral medication or a requirement for IV alimentation, or active peptic ulcer disease) that would impair ability to swallow and retain study drug
• No poorly controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] >= 140 mm Hg or diastolic BP >= 90 mm Hg) Initiation or adjustment of BP medication is allowed prior to study entry provided that the average of 3 BP readings prior to study entry is < 140/90 mm Hg

• Oral hypoglycemics: glipizide, glyburide, or tolbutamide
• Ergot derivatives: dihydroergotamine, ergonovine, ergotamine, or methylergonovine
• Neuroleptics: pimozide
• No concurrent combination antiretroviral therapy for HIV-positive patients
• No other concurrent investigational agents
• No other concurrent anticancer therapy
• WBC >= 3,000/mm³
