Everolimus and Imatinib Mesylate in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Kidney Cancer

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Kidney Cancer

In brief

RATIONALE: Everolimus and imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Everolimus may also block blood flow to the tumor. Giving everolimus together with imatinib mesylate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving everolimus together with imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable kidney cancer.
