Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patients with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors, for whom weekly paclitaxel treatment is indicated (BEZ235-paclitaxel /BKM120-paclitaxel treatment)
  • HER2+ metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer patients eligible for weekly paclitaxel and trastuzumab (BEZ235-paclitaxel-trastuzumab /BKM120-paclitaxel-trastuzumab treatment)

However, patients with a metastatic CNS lesion may participate in this trial, if the patient is > 4 weeks from therapy (including radiation and/or surgery) completion, clinically stable with respect to the tumor at the time of study entry, and not receiving enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs or corticosteroid therapy or taper, as treatment of the brain metastases
  • Patients who have received prior systemic anticancer therapy within the following time frames
  • Cyclical chemotherapy: ≤ 3 weeks before study treatment (6 weeks for patients treated with nitrosoureas)
  • Biological therapy: ≤ 4 weeks before study treatment, except treatment with trastuzumab (both parts of the trial)
  • Investigational drug: ≤ 4 weeks before study treatment
  • Patients who have undergone major surgery ≤ 4 weeks before study treatment
  • Patients receiving chronic treatment with corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents
