chemotherapy; concurrent use of trastuzumab is not permitted; concurrent use of
zoledronic acid is allowed

- serum albumin less than 3.0 g/dL within the last 30 days

- creatinine clearance (CrCL) or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) less than 60 mL/min
[/body surface area (BSA)] (within the last 30 days)

- inability to understand and give informed consent to participate

- patients with a history of inflammatory bowel disease requiring therapy or patients
with chronic diarrhea syndromes or paralytic ileus

- patients with prior or concurrent pelvic irradiation

- patients who use an ostomy for fecal excretion
