Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Weight \>= 40 kg
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =\< 1
  • Life expectancy \> 3 months
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= l500/ul
  • Hemoglobin \>= 9g/dL
  • Platelets \>= 100,000/ ul
  • Total bilirubin \< 1.5 x upper limit of normal
  • Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) \< 2.5 x upper limit of normal for patients without liver metastases OR SGOT and SGPT \< 5 x upper limit of normal for patients with liver metastases
  • Measurable or non-measurable disease will be allowed
  • Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation, up until 30 days after final study treatment; should a woman become pregnant or suspect that she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately
  • Patients taking substrates, inhibitors, or inducers of cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 should be encouraged to switch to alternative drugs whenever possible, given the potential for drug-drug interactions with sirolimus
  • Signed informed consent

Exclusion

  • Prior treatment with a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor (including sirolimus) is allowed; however, patients with \>= grade 3 toxicities with an mTOR inhibitor are excluded
  • Fasting glucose \> 126 mg/dL or fasting triglycerides \> 150 mg/dL; patients are allowed to be on oral anti-hyperglycemic and anti-lipid therapies, but cannot be on insulin
  • Patients who have had chemotherapy or immunotherapy within 3 weeks of starting study drug, or radiotherapy within 14 days of starting study drug, or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier
  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents or any concomitant antineoplastic therapy, with the exception of androgen ablating agents (for patients with prior prostate cancer)
  • Serious underlying medical or psychiatric illnesses that would, in the opinion of the treating physician, substantially increase the risk for complications related to treatment; similarly, any unstable medical condition that in the opinion of the treating physician or study investigators, would interfere with determination of the study objectives
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks
