Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients receiving any other investigational agents are ineligible
• Patients with a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to MLN0128 (TAK-228) are ineligible
• Patients may not have had prior treatment with mTOR, peptidase inhibitor 3, skin-derived (PI3) kinase or Akt inhibitors
• Patients on enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs (EIAED) are not eligible for treatment on this protocol; patients may be on non-enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs or not be taking any anti-epileptic drugs; patients previously treated with EIAED may be enrolled if they have been off the EIAED for 10 days or more prior to the first dose of MLN0128 (TAK-228)
• Patients must not have evidence of significant hematologic, renal, or hepatic dysfunction
• Patients must not have evidence of significant intracranial hemorrhage

• Patients with a history of any of the following within the last 6 months prior to study entry are ineligible:

  • Ischemic myocardial event, including angina requiring therapy and artery revascularization procedures
  • Ischemic cerebrovascular event, including transient ischemic attack (TIA) and artery revascularization procedures
  • Requirement for inotropic support (excluding digoxin) or serious (uncontrolled) cardiac arrhythmia (including atrial flutter/fibrillation, ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia)
  • Placement of a pacemaker for control of rhythm
  • New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV heart failure
  • Pulmonary embolism
• Patients with known significant active cardiovascular or pulmonary disease at the time of study entry are ineligible
• Patients with baseline prolongation of the rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) (e.g., repeated demonstration of QTc interval > 480 milliseconds, or history of congenital long QT syndrome, or torsades de pointes) are ineligible
• Patients with known diabetes mellitus which is poorly controlled (defined as hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c] > 7%) are ineligible; subjects with a history of transient glucose intolerance due to corticosteroid administration are allowed in this study if all other inclusion/exclusion have been met
