Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
MLN0128
Treatment will be administered on an outpatient basis. MLN0128 at fixed dose will be administered orally, daily for treatment cycle. The participant will be requested to maintain a medication diary of medication. The medication diary will be returned to clinic staff at the end of each cycle. Treatment with MLN0128 will continue until progression or withdrawal of consent.
