• • chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, antiangiogenic therapy, investigational therapy or hormonal therapy, targeting the lesion under study, prior to the first dose of pazopanib OR
• • chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, antiangiogenic therapy, investigational therapy or hormonal therapy, targeting any other lesion / disease, within 14 days or five half-lives of a drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of pazopanib
• • 19. Administration of any non-oncologic investigational drug within 30 days or 5 half lives whichever is longer prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment.
