Brief Summary:
This study has two parts, dose escalation and dose expansion. For dose escalation, the primary objective is to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of AEB071 in patients with uveal melanoma. For dose expansion, the primary objective is to characterize the safety and tolerability of the MTD of AEB071 in patients with uveal melanoma.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Frequency of dose limiting toxicity during cycle 1 (28 days) - Dose Escalation [ Time Frame: cycle 1 (28 days) ]
  2. Number of participants reporting serious adverse events and adverse events - Dose Expansion [ Time Frame: Baseline, every 28 days ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :

  2. Progression free survival and time to progression using RECIST version 1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months ]
  3. Number of patients reporting serious adverse events and adverse events [ Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months ]
  4. AEB071/AEE800 pharmacokinetic parameters including Cmax, tmax, AUCτ, Ctrough, CL/F, and RA [ Time Frame: First 7 months of treatment period ]
