Temsirolimus and Cixutumumab in Treating Patients With Locally Advanced, Metastatic, or Recurrent Soft Tissue Sarcoma or Bone Sarcoma

Summary

This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus and cixutumumab works in treating patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or recurrent soft tissue sarcoma or bone sarcoma. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth by blocking the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving temsirolimus with cixutumumab may be an effective treatment for soft tissue or bone sarcoma.
