Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Histological or cytological proof of transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder, urethra, ureter, or renal pelvis (urothelial carcinoma). Histology may be mixed, but still requires a component of TCC.
• Measurable disease according to RECIST and obtained by imaging within 30 days prior to registration for protocol therapy.
• Must be ineligible for cisplatin, based on the following, within 30 days prior to registration for protocol therapy.
• Prior radiation therapy is allowed to < 25% of the bone marrow.
• Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information.
• Age > 18 years at the time of consent.
• Females of childbearing potential and males must be willing to use an effective method of contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) from the time consent is signed until 8 weeks after treatment discontinuation.
• Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to prior to registration for protocol therapy.
• Females must not be breastfeeding.

You may not qualify if…

• No prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Prior chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant/adjuvant setting is allowed if completed at least 12 months prior to registration for protocol therapy.
• No active CNS metastases or leptomeningeal metastases. Patients with neurological symptoms must undergo a head CT scan or brain MRI to exclude brain metastasis.
• No prior malignancy is allowed except for adequately treated basal cell or adequately treated squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, Gleason ≤ grade 7 prostate cancers (treated definitively with no evidence of PSA progression), or other cancer for which the patient has been disease-free for at least 5 years.
• No treatment with any anticancer therapy or investigational agent within 30 days prior to registration for protocol therapy.
• No known hypersensitivity to any protocol treatment.
• No prior treatment with mTOR inhibitor (sirolimus, temsirolimus, everolimus).
• No history of immunization with attenuated live vaccines within one week prior to registration for protocol therapy or during study period.
• No severely impaired lung function as defined as spirometry and DLCO that is 50% of the normal predicted value and/or 02 saturation that is 88% or less at rest on room air.
• No uncontrolled diabetes as defined by fasting serum glucose >1.5 x ULN.
• No active (acute or chronic) or uncontrolled severe infections.
• No liver disease such as cirrhosis, chronic active hepatitis or chronic persistent hepatitis.
• No known history of HIV seropositivity.
• No impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of everolimus (e.g., ulcerative disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome or small bowel resection).
• No active, bleeding diathesis.
• No history of major surgery (defined as requiring general anesthesia) or significant traumatic injury within 30 days prior to registration for protocol therapy.
