4. Patient must have performance status ≤ 2 on the ECOG Performance Scale.
5. Patient must have adequate organ function as indicated by the following laboratory values: adequate liver (total bilirubin \< 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin \> 1.5 x ULN but biliary obstruction is documented radiologically, transaminases \< 2.5 x ULN or \< 5 x ULN if due to liver metastases), renal (creatinine \< 2 x ULN) and bone marrow function (hemoglobin \> 8g/dL, absolute neutrophil count \> 1 X 109/L and platelets \> 30 X 109/L)
6. Female patient of childbearing potential has a negative serum or urine pregnancy test β-hCG within 5 days prior to receiving the first dose of study medication.
7. Patients have completed chemotherapy regimens have residual toxicity \< Grade 1 except alopecia.
8. Patient, or the patient's legal representative, has voluntarily agreed to participate by giving written informed consent.
9. Patient is able to swallow capsules and has no surgical or anatomical condition that will preclude the patient from swallowing and absorbing oral medications on an ongoing basis.

4. Patient has known active CNS metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis unless patients were clinically stable for 2 weeks after radiotherapy.
5. Patient with a primary central nervous system tumor.
6. Patient has known hypersensitivity to the components of study drug or its analogs.
7. Patient has severe systemic disease.
8. Patient has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or lab abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the patient's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the patient to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator.
