Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects must provide signed informed consent form prior to performance of study-specific procedures or assessments, and must be willing to comply with treatment and follow-up.

Procedures conducted as part of the subject's clinical routine (e.g., blood count, imaging study) and obtained prior to signing the consent form might be used for screening or baseline purposes provided these procedures have been conducted as specified in the protocol.

Age ≥ 18 years.
Diagnosis of pancreatic islet cell tumors, well differentiated gastrointestinal NETs, pulmonary carcinoids and well differentiated thymic carcinoids. Locally-advanced or metastatic disease documented as progressive by CT scan, MRI, or Octreoscan at baseline and within 12 months prior to baseline. The previous scans will be used to classify the patient as having progressive disease at baseline according to RECIST criteria. Octreoscan results may be used to document progressive disease at baseline, but not for RECIST determination during the study.
ECOG performance status 0-1.
Disease not amenable to surgery, radiation or combined modality therapy with curative intent.
Presence of at least one dimensionally measurable target lesion for further evaluation according to RECIST 1.0 criteria (contrast enhancing lesion with the largest diameter > 1cm, based on CT or MRI scan done within 4 weeks before the start of treatment).
Patients could have received treatment with somatostatin analogs, chemotherapy, anti-VEGF, and anti-mTOR agents previously to the entrance into this study if the final toxicity was grade ≤ 1.
From patients who sign an informed consent form to donate biological samples: Tumor tissue must be provided for all available subjects at baseline and serum samples will be collected at baseline and at week 12 of treatment for biomarker analysis as defined at the biomarker section of this protocol.

Adequate organ system function as follows:

9.1.Hematologic system:

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 X 10^9/L
Hemoglobin (1) ≥ 9 g/dL (5.6 mmol/L)
Platelets ≥ 100 X 10^9/L
Prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.2 X upper limit of normal (ULN)
Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 1.2 X ULN

9.2.Hepatic system (2):

Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X ULN
AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 X ULN

9.3.Renal system:

Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL (133 µmol/L),

Or, if greater than 1.5 mg/dL:

(Note 1):"Subjects should not have had a transfusion within 7 days of screening assessment." (Note 2): "Concomitant elevations in bilirubin and AST/ALT above 1.0 x ULN are not permitted"

Screening with CNS imaging studies (computed tomography [CT] or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) is required only if clinically indicated or if the subject has a history of CNS metastases.
