Trial Notes:
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as IMC-A12, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.

Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving monoclonal antibody IMC-A12 together with temsirolimus may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of monoclonal antibody IMC-A12 and temsirolimus in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic cancer.
