- Medically appropriate candidate for radical cystectomy as per MSKCC attending urologic oncologist.
- Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 70%.
- Age ≥ 18 years of age.
- Required Initial Laboratory Values:
- Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1500 cells/mm3
- Platelets ≥ 100,000 cells/mm3
- Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0g/dL
- Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 the upper limit of normal (ULN) for the institution

- Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE Version 3.0 grade ≥ 2.
- Prolonged QTc interval on baseline EKG (\>450 msec for males and \>470 msec for females).

- Ongoing treatment with therapeutic doses of warfarin (low dose warfarin up to 2 mg po daily for thromboembolic prophylaxis is allowed).
- Pregnancy or breast-feeding. Patients must be surgically sterile or be postmenopausal,or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy. The definition of effective contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate.
