Adequate contraception must be used throughout the trial and for 8 weeks after the last dose of study drug, by both sexes. Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test ≤ 7 days prior to starting BKM120 * Male patients whose sexual partner(s) are WOCBP who are not willing to use adequate contraception, during the study and for 8 weeks after the end of treatment * Patients with a known diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (HIV testing is not mandatory) * Patients with a history of another primary malignancy that is currently clinically significant, has potential for metastases or currently requires active intervention * Patients who have any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect their participation in the study such as: * Patients with any other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled concomitant medical conditions (e.g. active or uncontrolled infection) that could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol * History of noncompliance to medical regimens * Patients unwilling to or unable to comply with the protocol
