Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of RAD-001 and Sunitinib given in combination for renal cell cancer. We also want to find out what effects (good and bad) the combination of RAD-001 and Sunitinib have on you and your tumor.

RAD001 is a pill that works by shutting down some of the pathways in the cell that make tumors grow. Sunitinib is a pill that works by shutting off the signal in the cancer cells that tell the cells to grow blood vessels. Without this signal, the blood vessels to the tumors shrink down.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

RAD001, Sunitinib

Patients will start treatment with Sunitinib and RAD001 on Cycle 1, Day 1. Sunitinib will be given orally daily for 4 weeks followed by a 2 week rest period. RAD001 will be given orally daily or weekly in subsequent cohorts with the first treatment on day 1. DLT determination will be based on toxicities observed in Cycles 1 - a cycle being defined by Sunitinib dosing. Once the MTD for the combination has been identified, a total of 10 patients will be enrolled into the study at the highest dose level that allows for administration of multiple cycles and provides potentially therapeutic drug levels of both drugs
