Why stopped (as posted): Most patients completed only the primary objective (PET) and not went throught the secondary outcome (efficacy phase) of 8wks period.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- The Maximum Standardized Uptake Values (SUVmax) Change on PET/CT Scan
- timeFrame
- 2 Weeks
- description
- A baseline whole-body \[18F\]-fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG) PET was performed before therapy initiation. Patients received 1 mg of Rapa and 200 mg of HCQ twice a day before a meal for 2 weeks. A second \[18F\]-FDG PET was performed after treatment completion. SUVs were calculated for all lesions. Regions of interest (ROI) were contoured to represent tumors (\>2 cm) and organs (lungs, spleen, and liver) on all transaxial and coronal slices. ROIs were normalized for injection dose and body weight, and the maximum voxel value was recorded for each region or organ. The highest SUV measured with increased uptake was considered the SUVmax. Correlative diagnostic CT examinations were used for accurate localization of the lesions. The most intense uptake at baseline was identified as the index lesion and evaluated for treatment response.
