"exclusion_criteria": "Patients fulfilling any of the following criteria should not be enrolled in the study:\n\n* Previous myelosuppressive chemotherapy within the past 4 weeks of the start of the infusion.

All women of child-bearing potential should be excluded unless they have a negative pregnancy test and are using adequate contraceptive measures or are surgically sterile. Post-menopausal women must be amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered non-childbearing.\n* Fertile males not practicing adequate contraception and whose female partners are not using adequate contraceptive protection.\n* Prior or concurrent investigational treatment within 30 days of study entry.\n* Active infection requiring treatment or having an unexplained febrile illness.\n* Systemic diseases or other conditions which may be associated with unacceptable anesthetic/operative risk and/or which would not allow safe completion of this study protocol.\n* Prior or concurrent malignancy (curatively treated carcinoma-in-situ or basal cell carcinoma or patients who have been disease free for at least 5 years are eligible).",
