  • Patient must not have taken or require warfarin or other strong CYP3A inhibitors or inducers within 7 days prior to registration.
  • NOTE: Antiplatelet agents, other anticoagulants aside from warfarin, as well as mild or moderate CYP3A inhibitors or inducers are permitted on study but should be used with caution
  • Patient must not have an uncontrolled intercurrent illness that would interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of this protocol
  • Patient must not have evidence of an active infection at the time of registration
  • Patient must not have the following current or prior anti-cancer treatment:

To be eligible for this trial, patients should be class 2B or better
  • Patient must have adequate formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue specimen from the initial diagnostic biopsy or on-study repeat tumor tissue biopsy for molecular analysis
  • NOTE: Excisional tumor biopsy is preferred. Core needle biopsies will be considered adequate if there is enough tissue for the mandatory molecular analysis. Submission of an entire FFPE tumor block is preferred, but if unavailable 10 x 10um FFPE scrolls may be submitted as an alternative. If adequate archived FFPE tumor tissue is unavailable, the patient must be willing to undergo research biopsy for molecular analysis
  • Patient must have measurable disease
  • Patient must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
