Official Title: Pilot Phase II Study of Temsirolimus in Patients With Recurrent Mixed Mesodermal and Mullerian Tumors (Carcinosarcoma) of the Uterus
Study ID: NCT01061606
Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well temsirolimus works in treating patients with recurrent or persistent cancer of the uterus. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the efficacy of Temsirolimus in women with recurrent or persistent (after primary therapy) Carcinosarcoma (MMMT) of the uterus. II. Assess the safety and tolerability of Temsirolimus in this patient population. III. Evaluate secondary efficacy endpoints of time to tumor progression, progression-free survival (PFS), 6 month PFS rate, and duration of response. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Overall survival II.Duration of Response III. Time to progression IV. Time to treatment failure OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive temsirolimus IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up periodically for up to 3 years.
