Summary

RATIONALE: RAD001(Everolimus) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for their growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well RAD001(everolimus) works in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

everolimus

Patients will receive monotherapy with RAD001(everolimus)for 21 days within the 28 day cycle.

OTHER

laboratory biomarker analysis

Laboratory correlates (cytotoxic t cell populations, S6K1 levels, GSTT-1 mutations, and the presence or absence of HLA-DR15) will be assessed to see if any of these correlates correspond to response.

PROCEDURE

Bone marrow aspirate/biopsy

Bone marrow aspirate and biopsy with cytogenetics should be obtained within 4 weeks prior to starting drug and at week 33. A bone marrow aspirate and biopsy should also be obtained for patients going off study prior to week 33 (including cytogenetics). The percentage of blasts on the aspirate should be used to determine the IPSS score.
