Summary
The purpose of this research study is to look at participants with solid tumor malignancies and specific mutations respond to treatment with everolimus.
Detailed description
Cancer is a molecularly heterogeneous disease comprised of complex genomic alterations in common and overlapping pathways. Somatic inactivating mutations in tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) gene were recently identified as potential markers of response to mTOR therapy. Everolimus is an oral derivative of rapamycin. At the cellular and molecular level, everolimus acts as a signal transduction inhibitor, and selectively inhibits mTOR. We hypothesize that everolimus will exhibit clinical activity in solid malignancies harboring TSC1, TSC2, NF1, NF2, or STK11 mutations.
