Background: Inhibition of mTOR with temsirolimus (T) might be an efficacious treatment of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (OC) or endometrial cancer (EC). Methods: Patients (pts) with platinum and taxane resistant OC (n = 22) or with advanced/recurrent EC, who had not received previous chemotherapy (n = 22) were treated with weekly IV infusions of T (25 mg). Primary endpoint was progression free survival after 4 months (OC) or 6 months (EC).
