Summary

This study looks at the safety and effectiveness of the drug everolimus in Taiwanese adults with tuberous sclerosis complex who have kidney tumors called angiomyolipomas. Four participants will take the medication to see if it reduces tumor size and to monitor any side effects. The goal is to control the disease rather than cure it, as ongoing treatment is needed.
