This study investigates the safety and efficacy of Acetyl-L-Carnitine and compares it to the safety and efficacy of placebo (inactive) tablet in the prevention of Sagopilone induced peripheral neuropathy. Patients will receive intravenous infusion of sagopilone for 3 hours on day 1 of a 3- weeks cycle. Up to 6 courses of treatment with Sagopilone will be given. In addition patients will receive ALC or placebo, starting 1 week before first sagopilone infusion and ending 30 days after the last infusion with sagopilone. Safety will be determined by laboratory and other evaluations. Efficacy of ALC will be determined by the incidence of all grades of peripheral neuropathy and with the results of a patient questionnaire. Efficacy of the combination of ALC and Sagopilone will be determined by the tumor response.
