Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RAD001 continues to be investigated as an anticancer agent on new indications such as neuroendocrine tumors (incl. carcinoid), breast cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer and lymphoma based on its potential to act: * directly on the tumor cells by inhibiting tumor cell growth and proliferation * indirectly by inhibiting angiogenesis leading to reduced tumor vascularity (via potent inhibition of tumor cell HIF-1 activity and VEGF production and VEGF-induced proliferation of endothelial cells) A role for RAD001 in combination with Sandostatin LAR® Depot in the treatment of advanced carcinoid tumor is suggested by data on the regulatory role of mTOR in cell growth and protein translation and the finding that somatostatin-induced growth arrest is mediated in part by inhibition of the PI3K pathway (Charland, et al. 2001). The present study is designed to collect safety/tolerability data and evidences for efficacy of RAD001 in the medically highly unmet indication of advanced pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor in Chinese patients.

- Safety and tolerability
- timeFrame
- 28 ±4 days
- description
- Safety assessments will consist of monitoring and recording all adverse events, including serious adverse events, the regular monitoring of hematology and blood chemistry, regular monitoring of vital signs and physical condition. A safety visit will take place on day 28 (±4 days) following the last dose of study drug administered. Patients will be asked to visit the clinic on day 1 of every 6 weeks for safety assessments. Safety and tolerability will be assessed according to the NIH/NCI CTC
