Locally advanced or metastatic, unresectable, soft-tissue sarcoma of intermediate or high grade with measurable disease. 2. Life expectancy \>12 weeks (about 3 month) Phase 2a Expansion Group 2 (Unresectable STS): Exclusion 1. Prior exposure to anthracyclines 2. Treatment naive extremity tumors Phase 2a Expansion Group 3a (Head and Neck): Inclusion 1.
