Brief Summary
Phase 1 Evaluate the safety and tolerability of RAD001 in combination with sorafenib in patients with advance hepatocellular cancer (HCC) and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) Phase 2 To estimate the treatment effect as a measure of anti-tumor activity in terms of Time to Progression (TTP) of the combination of RAD001 plus sorafenib, at the MTD, as compared to sorafenib alone

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Maximum tolerated dose of combination RAD001+sorafenib
Until maximum tolerated dose is determined
Time to disease progression assessed when 60 events have been observed
Until number of events are reached
Secondary Outcomes (9)
Safety and tolerability of the combination of RAD001 plus sorafenib as measured by the rate and severity of adverse events
Estimate of 1 year for each patient - Until all patients have disease progression or leave study due to intolerable toxicity
Tumor response
Estimate of 1 year for each patient - Until all patients have disease progression or leave study due to intolerable toxicity
Biomarkers- effect of treatment on soluble markers of angiogenesis and apoptosis
Estimate of 1 year for each patient - Until all patients have disease progression or leave study due to intolerable toxicity
Overall tumor response (phase 2)
Estimate of 1 year for each patient - Until number of events reached and final analysis
Progression Free Survivor, Overall Survivor (phase 2)
Estimate of 1 year for each patient - Until number of events reached and final analysis
- +4 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Phase 1: RAD001 plus sorafenib
