Summary:

      This research study is evaluating the combination of pazopanib and everolimus in patients
      that have a malignancy that is metastatic or unresectable and for which standard curative or
      palliative measures do not exist or are no longer effective, or metastatic or locally
      advanced unresectable kidney cancer. In this research study the investigators are testing the
      safety of the combination of pazopanib and everolimus and finding the appropriate doses to
      use for further studies.
