• Anatomically evaluable disease on chest CT meeting one of the following criteria (obtained within 90 days of enrollment):
• A. multiple (\> 10) noncalcified solid pulmonary nodules visible on CT and/or B. enlarging, discrete pulmonary nodules visible on CT of any number consistent with metastatic disease

• Hemoglobin ≥ to 8.0 g/dL at baseline (may receive red blood cell (RBC) transfusions).
• B. Adequate Renal Function:
• Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 70 mL/min/1.73 m2 or a maximum serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:
