Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- For patients with mBCC, histologic confirmation of distant BCC metastasis

10 mm or more in diameter and written confirmation from a surgical specialist that the
tumor is considered inoperable or that surgery is contraindicated
- For patients with locally advanced BCC, radiotherapy must have been previously
administered for locally advanced BCC, unless radiotherapy is contraindicated or
inappropriate. For patients whose locally advanced BCC has been irradiated, disease
must have progressed after radiation.

locally advanced or metastatic disease listed above
- Patients with measurable and/or non-measurable disease (as defined by RECIST) are
allowed
- Adequate organ function
- For women of childbearing potential, agreement to the use of two acceptable methods of
contraception, including one barrier method, during the study and for 12 months after
discontinuation of Vismodegib (GDC-0449)

contraception during the study and for 3 months after discontinuation of Vismodegib
(GDC-0449)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnancy or lactation
- Life expectancy < 12 weeks
- Concurrent non-protocol-specified anti-tumor therapy
- Completion of most recent anti-tumor therapy at least 21 days prior to initiation of
treatment
- Uncontrolled medical illnesses such as infection requiring treatment with intravenous
antibiotics
- History of other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or
clinical laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that
contraindicates use of an investigational drug or that might affect interpretation of
