Brief Summary:
To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus by estimating the overall response rate (ORR) as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Metastatic dMMR Solid Cancer Solid Tumor Cancer Metastatic Solid Tumor Drug: Sirolimus 2Mg Tab Phase 2

Detailed Description:

Despite recent therapeutic strategies, including immunotherapy, treatment alternatives for patients with metastatic mismatch-repair deficient (dMMR) solid tumors remain scarce. Pre-clinical data suggests that dMMR tumors are susceptible to rapamycin (sirolimus), a mTOR inhibitor. In these tumors, characterized by higher levels of oxidative stress, sirolimus can exert a cytotoxic effect, led by the failure to repair DNA damage by inhibition of antioxidant enzymes such as FOXO3a triggered by Akt hyperactivation.

This proposal presents a phase 2 clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus in patients with dMMR solid tumors after immunotherapy. The investigators hypothesize that sirolimus will increase the overall response rate (ORR) by 20%.

Drug Information available for: Sirolimus

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Sirolimus
Participants will be instructed to take 2 mg every day for 28 days (1 cycle). They will be evaluated in the oncology clinic every 2 weeks to make sure they are tolerating the medication well.
Drug: Sirolimus 2Mg Tab
Sirolimus (oral) will be started at 2 mg daily. Sirolimus dosing will be titrated to meet serum trough levels of >8 ng/ml, assayed at 7 days after starting a new dose, by chromatography/nmass spectrometry. Once adequate serum levels are met (≥8 ng/ml), the same dosing will be continued until progression of disease as evidenced by imaging, or unacceptable toxicity.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Response Rate [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus by estimating the overall response rate (ORR) as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) - median months [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To evaluate other clinical end-points such as progression-free survival, response duration and overall survival of sirolimus in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).

  2. Response Duration (months) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To evaluate other clinical end-points such as progression-free survival, response duration and overall survival of sirolimus in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).

  3. Overall Survival (OS) - median months [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To evaluate other clinical end-points such as progression-free survival, response duration and overall survival of sirolimus in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).
