Official Title: A Randomized Prospective, Multicentric, Open Label, Phase II Study Aiming to Evaluate the Efficacity and Safety of EVEROLIMUS as Neo-adjuvant Therapy in Patients With Primary or Relapsed The mainstay of chondrosarcoma treatment is a wide surgical resection. Unfortunately, this is a rare occurrence, and patients with incomplete resection have very poor therapeutic options. In this context, it becomes important to find new therapeutic strategies to slow down tumor progression and to reduce tumor size before resection.

Pre-clinical and clinical data suggest that EVEROLIMUS should be efficient as adjuvant and neo-adjuvant therapy in chondrosarcoma.

Then, investigators propose a phase II, randomized, open label study compounded by 3 arms (1:1:1) to assess efficiency of EVEROLIMUS as neo-adjuvant therapy in patients with primary or relapsed chondrosarcomas :

ARM 1 = No treatment; ARM 2 = 2,5 mg Everolimus/day; ARM 3 = 10 mg Everolimus/day.

The treatments will be taken for 4 weeks before surgery, apart from any premature withdrawn
