Summary
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of everolimus, letrozole, and metformin can help to control recurrent or progressive endometrial cancer. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Everolimus is designed to block a protein inside cancer cells that is involved in cancer growth. Letrozole is designed to block a protein from making estrogen. This may interfere with the growth of cancer cells. Metformin is commonly used to control blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes. It is designed to lower insulin levels, which may slow or stop the growth of endometrial cancer cells.
