Progression is defined as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

Population: Subjects who completed at least 1 tumor assessment post-baseline after starting treatment and received sufficient drug (\>= 21 doses of neratinib and \>= 2 doses of temsirolimus in the first 28 days unless the subject discontinued treatment early for documented progression or symptomatic deterioration after taking at least 1 dose of test article\[s\])
