Official Title: Phase II Study of RAD001monotherapy in Patients With Unresectable Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

Brief Summary:

  • Although mTOR is clearly an attractive therapeutic target in tumor, no clinical study on mTOR inhibition by RAD001 has been systematically conducted in adenoid cystic carcinoma.
  • In phase I study of RAD001, 2 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma show some response to RAD001 (unpublished data).
  • So the investigators design this phase II study of RAD001 in adenoid cystic carcinoma to evaluate the efficacy of RAD001 in this orphan disease.
