• symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases who are neurologically unstable
• presence or history of carcinomatous meningitis
• history of another primary malignancy that is currently clinically significant or currently requires active intervention
• Clinically significant, uncontrolled heart diseases, including QTcF ≥ 450 ms (male patients), ≥ 460 ms (female patients) on the screening ECG
• Thoracic radiotherapy to lung fields ≤ 4 weeks prior to starting INC280
• Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to starting INC280
• Patients receiving unstable or increasing doses of corticosteroids.
• Impairment of GI function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of INC280
• Patients who have received or consumed, or are expected to receive or consume midazolam or caffeine-containing products (e.g., tea, coffee, cola), within 2 days prior to Day 1 and during the whole duration of the DDI phase (i.e., from Day -2 to Day 12)
