Detailed Description: This is a phase II, two-stage, open-label, single-agent study of the experimental drug RAD001 (everolimus) in patients with previously treated small cell lung cancer. Patients may have received up to 2 prior chemotherapy regimens for small cell lung carcinoma, but no prior therapy with an m-TOR inhibitor. RAD001 will be administered orally at a dose of 10 mg daily. A cycle will be defined as 3 weeks of study drug administration, and patients will have tumor measurements every 2 cycles. Study participation will continue until disease progression or intolerable toxicities. In addition, in patients who consent, archival tumor tissue (paraffin block from original biopsy) will be collected for research purposes.
