* Patients with clinically significant interstitial lung disease or history of cardiac disease
* Patients, who have had a major surgery or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of start of study drug, patients who have not recovered from the side effects of any major surgery (defined as requiring general anesthesia) or patients that may require major surgery during the course of the study
* Prior treatment with any investigational drug within the preceding 4 weeks prior to starting study drug
* Patients receiving chronic, systemic treatment with corticosteroids (more than 20 mg/day prednisone equivalent, see inclusion criteria) or another immunosuppressive agent; topical or inhaled corticosteroids are allowed
* Patients should not receive immunization with attenuated live vaccines within one week of starting study drug or during study period; close contact with those who have received attenuated live vaccines should be avoided during treatment with everolimus; examples of live vaccines include intranasal influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, oral polio, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), yellow fever, varicella and typhoid vaccine live oral (TY)21a typhoid vaccines
* Other malignancies within the past 3 years except for adequately treated carcinoma of the cervix or basal or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin
* Patients who have any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect their participation in the study such as:
* Symptomatic congestive heart failure of New York heart Association class III or IV
* Unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of start of study drug, serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50% or any other clinically significant cardiac disease
* Severely impaired lung function as defined as spirometry and diffusion capacity of the lung of carbon monoxide (DLCO) that is 50% of the normal predicted value and/or oxygen (02) saturation that is 88% or less at rest on room air
* Uncontrolled diabetes as defined by fasting serum glucose \> 1.5 x ULN (Note: optimal glycemic control should be achieved before starting trial therapy)
