Summary
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of the combination of RAD001 and PKC412 in subjects with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or hematologic malignancies.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with relapsed or refractory AML, MDS, or CMML who can't have standard therapy. They should be in relatively stable health (ECOG ≤2), not pregnant, using double barrier contraception if of childbearing potential, and without recent transplants or other cancers within 5 years.
What is being tested?
The study tests RAD001 combined with PKC412 to find the safest high dose against certain blood cancers. RAD001 targets a protein pathway that's overactive in cancer cells while PKC412 blocks an enzyme linked to AML cell growth.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels, digestive system issues affecting drug absorption, increased risk of infection due to immune suppression, and possible allergic reactions to the drugs.
