* Adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal function as evidenced by:
* Liver function: bilirubin \< 1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN) and SGOT (AST) \< 2.5x ULN.
* Renal function: Serum creatinine \<1.5 times the ULN or creatinine clearance above 50.

* Absence of brain metastases.
* No patients under the age of 21 and no pregnant or nursing women will be enrolled. Women who are not of child bearing potential, and women of child bearing potential who agree to use, while on study, an effective form of contraception and who have a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to initial study treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with radioresistant tumors (i.e. melanoma).
* Patients with primary or metastatic disease to the marrow, heart or brain will be enrolled in order to prevent potential toxicity to these organs.
* Patients with neurological disorders including strokes, seizure disorder, dizziness, vertigo, preexisting grade 2 or higher neuropathy, tremors.
* Mini Mental Test score less than 24.
* Unexplained temperature \> 101F or \<95F for any 7 consecutive days or chronic diarrhea defined as \> 3 stools/day persisting for 15 consecutive days, within the 30 days prior to treatment.
* Prior chemotherapy or surgery within one month, or prior radiotherapy within 2 months.
* Immunotherapy or biologic therapy within 1 month.

Inflammation in general can cause FDG uptake that may be severe enough to be confused with malignant lesions, especially when there is granulomatous inflammation such as tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, histoplasmosis, and aspergillosis among others and patients with inflammatory disorders are excluded.
* Recent fractures within 2 months.
* Psychiatric illness/social situations that may affect the patient's compliance with the treatment.
