Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Stage 1 - Progression Free Survival (PFS) Rate Analysis at 16 Weeks as Per Local Radiology Review
16 weeks after the first BEZ235 administration.

PFS rate at 16 weeks was defined as a binary variable. Patients were considered as 'progression free' after 16 weeks if they had an overall lesion response of complete response (CR) partial response ('PR) or stable disease (SD)' and "progressed" if they had an overall lesion response of 'Progressive disease (PD) at the scan which occurred on day 105 after start of treatment, or later. Patients whose 16 weeks tumor assessment was unknown, missing or outside the window was not considered as 'progression free' and was considered a "failure" and counted only in the denominator for the estimation of the 16 week progression free rate.

Secondary Endpoints
Stage 1- Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Baseline, every 8 weeks up to 31 months
Stage 1 - Disease Control Rate
Baseline, every 8 weeks up to 31 months
