             Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization after the nature of
             the study has been fully explained

          -  Subjects with a histologic diagnosis of unresectable stage IV melanoma (may include
             mucosal melanoma)

          -  ECOG performance status of 0 or 1

          -  Patients with brain metastases treated with surgery, radiation, or stereotactic

             steroids will be eligible

          -  Hematocrit >= 30%

          -  Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL

          -  Creatinine =< 2.0 mg/dL

          -  AST/ALT =< 2 x ULN

          -  Bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN, (except subjects with Gilbert's Syndrome who must have a total

          -  HIV negative

          -  HBsAg negative

          -  Anti-HCV Ab nonreactive; if reactive, subject must have a negative HCV RNA qualitative

          -  Patients with hyperlipidemia must have adequate control with a lipid lowering agent

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Any prior malignancy except for the following: adequately treated basal or squamous
             cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or any
             other cancer from which the subject has been disease-free for at least 5 years

          -  Active infection, requiring therapy, chronic active HBV or HCV; patients with HIV, who
             have adequate CD4 counts and who do not require HAART therapy, are NOT excluded

          -  Pregnancy or nursing: due to the possibility that temsirolimus and AZD6244 hydrogen
             sulfate could have a detrimental effect on the developing fetus or infant, exposure in
             utero or via breast milk will not be allowed

          -  Any underlying medical condition which, in the opinion of the principal investigator,

             adverse events

          -  Prior treatment with temsirolimus or AZD6244 or any prior mTOR or MEK inhibitor

          -  Evidence or history of significant cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, psychiatric or
             gastrointestinal disease that would make the administration of temsirolimus or AZD6244
             hydrogen sulfate unsafe

          -  Tumor that is BRAF V600E mutation negative
