* Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3
* Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL
* Albumin ≥ 3.0 g/dl
* Serum creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL
* Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN).
* Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase ≤2.5 x ULN.

* Known or suspected active central nervous system metastasis. (Patients stable 8 weeks after completion of treatment for central nervous system metastasis are eligible.)
* Impending or symptomatic spinal cord compression or carcinomatous meningitis.
* Having pre-existing clinically significant neuropathy (NCI CTCAE Grade ≥ 2 neuromotor or Grade 2 neurosensory) except for abnormalities due to cancer.
* Having received prior treatment with LEP-ETU.
* Having known hypersensitivity to paclitaxel or liposomes.
* Receiving any agent that could interfere with LEP-ETU metabolism, including CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors within 3 weeks prior to, or while receiving, study drug. (Please refer to http://medicine.iupui.edu/flockhart/ for a list of such agents).
* Currently receiving any other standard or investigational treatment for cancer or any other investigational agent for any indication.
* Requiring immediate palliative treatment of any kind including surgery and/or radiotherapy.
