Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Everolimus may also help cisplatin work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving cisplatin together with everolimus may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of everolimus when given together with cisplatin in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or recurrent or metastatic solid tumors.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* Determine the recommended phase II dose of everolimus when administered with low-dose cisplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Secondary

* Determine the safety and tolerability of this regimen in these patients.

* Describe the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in patients with advanced solid tumors.

* Assess the effects of this regimen on p53 and p21 immunohistochemistry assays of pre- and post-treatment tumor biopsies from patients with recurrent or metastatic solid tumors.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of everolimus (part A) followed by a biological marker study (part B).

* Part A (closed to accrual as of 1/2009): Patients receive cisplatin\* IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15 and oral everolimus\* once daily on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of everolimus until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose proceeding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during course 1. The recommended phase II dose is defined as the dose at which 1 of 6 patients experience DLT during course 1.

Blood is drawn periodically on days 1 and 8 of course 1 for pharmacokinetic studies.

* NOTE: \*Patients who have completed 5 courses of treatment and maintain stable disease or better may continue treatment with everolimus alone or in combination with cisplatin

* Part B: Patients undergo biopsy of the primary tumor, metastatic deposit, or involved lymph node. No more than 14 days later, patients receive everolimus at the recommended phase II dose and cisplatin as in part A.

Patients undergo another tumor biopsy on day 15 of course 1, before receiving chemotherapy. The pre- and post-therapy tissue is examined by immunochemistry and analyzed for p53 and p21 expression.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30 people will be accrued for this study.
