- Patients with pancreatic NET or NET of origins other than GI or Lung
- Patients with history of or active symptoms of carcinoid syndrome (e.g. flushing, diarrhea)
- Patients with more than one line of prior chemotherapy
- Prior targeted therapy
- Hepatic intra-arterial embolization within the last 6 months. Cryoablation or radiofrequency ablation of hepatic metastases within 2 months of randomization
- Prior therapy with mTOR inhibitors (e.g. sirolimus, temsirolimus, deforolimus)
- Known intolerance or hypersensitivity to everolimus or other rapamycin analogs (e.g. sirolimus, temsirolimus)
- Known impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of oral everolimus
- Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus as defined by HbA1c >8% despite adequate therapy
Patients who had any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions such as:
- unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction ≤6 months prior to randomization, serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia
