Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
RAD001 + BEZ235
Patients will receive first dose of RAD001 at 2.5mg/5mg/10 mg weekly or 2.5mg/5mg daily in combination of BEZ235 at 50 mg/100 mg/200 mg/300 mg/400 mg twice a day. In the initial cohort of the dose finding phase, patients will receive a single 2.5 mg dose of RAD001 on Cycle 1 Day 1 and the combination therapy of RAD001 2.5 mg/week and BEZ235 200 mg bid starting on Cycle 1 Day 8. Dose escalation phase: patients will start RAD001 and BEZ235 on Cycle 1 Day 1 with both study drugs being administered at the center. Dose expansion phase: the first 15 patients enrolled at selected sites will take RAD001 as monotherapy from Day 1 to Day 7 (for PK sampling). The combination therapy of RAD001 and BEZ235 will start on Day 8. All remaining patients will receive the combination therapy of RAD001 and BEZ235 starting on Cycle 1 Day 1.
