Inclusion Criteria

Female ≥ 18 years of age

Adequate hematological function (neutrophil count  2x109/l, platelet count  100x 109/l)

Adequate hepatic function: AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 ULN, alkaline phosphatases ≤ 2.5 ULN, total bilirubin ≤ 2 ULN.

Adequate renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ULN

Signed written informed consent.

Histologically proven invasive unilateral or bilateral breast cancer (regardless of the morphological subtype)

Any T, M0

Patient with high risk of relapse

ER+ and HER2 negative : Hormone receptor positive is defined as any staining on the primary tumor, HER2 negativity is defined as IHC 0-1+, or [IHC 2+ and FISH or CISH non-amplified]

Primary tumor completely resected (deep margins and overlying skin involvement allowed if fully resected)

Patients who will begin an adjuvant hormone therapy or have received a maximum of 4 years of adjuvant hormone therapy. Hormone therapy could be either tamoxifen +/- LH-RH agonists, letrozole, anastrozole or exemestane

No clinically or radiologically detectable metastases at time of inclusion.

WHO Performance status (ECOG) of 0 or 1.

Exclusion Criteria

Any local or regional recurrence or metastatic disease.

Patient with chronic infection

Uncontrolled diabetes defined as glycated haemoglobin , HbA1c>7%

Uncontrolled hypercholesterolemia (cholesterol >300 mg/dl under adequate therapy).

Known hypersensitivity to the active substance, to other rapamycin derivatives or to any of the excipients.

Patient with other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical disease or infection which could compromise participation in the study (e.g. patient who regularly require systemic steroids to control co-morbid disease).

Patient with any psychological, familial, social or geographical condition which could potentially hamper compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial.

Any clinical or radiological suspicion of malignant or pre-malignant disease in the contralateral breast.

Patients with pN1mi as sole nodal involvement

Previous cancer (excepted basal cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix) in the preceding 5 years, including invasive contralateral breast cancer.

Patient already included in another ongoing therapeutic trial involving an unlicensed drug for which follow-up is required.

Patient who is pregnant or breast-feeding. Adequate birth control measures should be taken during the study treatment phase.

Patient with significantly impaired lung function (e.g. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, respiratory insufficiency, Interstitial Lung Disease)

Positive serology for HIV infection or hepatitis C.

Chronic carrier of HBV (positive Antigen HbsAg positive in the blood)
