  • Prior thoracic radiation
  • Treatment with any other investigational agents.
  • Known metastases
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to NFV
  • Patients receiving drugs contraindicated with NFV will be excluded.
  • Uncontrolled, intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study compliance.
