Brief Summary
This is a prospective open-labeled phase I trial based on a dose escalating study design assessing two dose levels of sirolimus when prescribed in combination with metronomic cyclophosphamide (CP), methotrexate (MT) and zoledronic acid (ZA) followed by an expansion cohort once the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) is established.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Dose Escalation Part: Number of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) at Each Dose Level on Cycle 1
A DLT is defined as an adverse event (AE) or laboratory abnormality that fulfills the criteria below: * Is considered to be at least possibly related to the study treatment * Occurs during the first cycle of treatment * Is unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications * Meets one of the criteria below, graded as outlined or according to NCI CTCAEv4.3: * Grade 4 non-haematological toxicity (not laboratory) * Grade 3 non-haematological toxicity \> 3 days (not laboratory) (except for asthenia, 1rst episode of nausea/vomiting without maximal symptomatic/prophylactic treatment) * Grade ≥ 3 non-hematologic laboratory value if medical intervention is required to treat the patient, or the abnormality leads to hospitalization, or the abnormality persists for \> 1 week * Grade ≥ 3 hematologic toxicity \> 3 days (except for lymphopenia) * Grade 4 lymphopenia * Confirmed febrile neutropenia
During the first cycle (28 days)
Expansion Cohort : Antitumor Activity Observed With Sirolimus Combined With CP, MT and ZA, in Terms of 6-month Non-progression Rate
6-month non-progression rate defined as the rate of complete or partial response or stable disease at 6 months using RECIST v1.1 : * Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. * Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. * Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions and also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). * Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD * Unevaluable : patients stopped the treatment before tumor assessment.
6-month non-progression rate as per RECIST v1.1
Secondary Outcomes (6)
Dose Escalation Part : Antitumor Activity Observed With Sirolimus Combined With CP, MT and ZA, Best Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Per RECIST v1.1
Tumor assessment were repeated every 8 weeks (±7 days, i.e Week 8, 16, 24, etc.) from the start of treatment and at least 4 weeks after the first CR or PR, even if there are treatment delays, an average of 4 months.
Dose Escalation Part : Antitumor Activity Observed With Sirolimus Combined With CP, MT and ZA, 1-year Progression-free Survival (PFS)
1-year Progression-free survival (PFS) as per RECIST v1.1
Dose Escalation Part : Antitumor Activity Observed With Sirolimus Combined With CP, MT and ZA, 1-year Overall Survival (OS)
1-year Overall Survival (OS) as per RECIST v1.1
Expansion Cohort : Antitumor Activity Observed With Sirolimus Combined With CP, MT and ZA, Best Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Per RECIST v1.1
Tumor assessment were repeated every 8 weeks (±7 days, i.e Week 8, 16, 24, etc.) from the start of treatment and at least 4 weeks after the first CR or PR, even if there are treatment delays, an average of 4 months.

EXPERIMENTALDrug : Metronomic Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate, Sirolimus, Zoledronic acid Assessment of the maximum tolerated dose of sirolimus Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate and Sirolimus will be administrated orally. Zoledronic Acid will be administrated by infusion (IV).
