of:

- phosphorylated AKT

- phosphorylated p70S6

- RKIP (Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein)

- phosphorylated ERK1/2 The presence of at least one of the previous targets will
be mandatory for patient enrolment

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)≥1.5 x 109/L

- Platelet count ≥100 x 109/L

- Serum albumin levels ≥2.5 mg/dl

- Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN

8. HBV/HCV testing in the 2 weeks before treatment start in specific categories of
patient with hepatitis B and C risk factors and in additional patients at the
discretion of the investigators according to guidelines in Appendix 6.
