Brief Summary: UCN-01 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth This phase II trial is studying how well UCN-01 works in treating patients with metastatic melanoma
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I To assess the anti-tumor activity of UCN-01 7-hydroxystaurosporine in metastatic melanoma as determined by the response rate
II To assess the clinical and laboratory toxicities of UCN-01 III To study the effects of UCN-01 administration on potential markers of specific G1-phase cell cycle regulators
OUTLINE This is a multicenter study
Patients receive UCN-01 IV over 3 hours on day 1 Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Patients are followed for survival
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 17-33 patients will be accrued for this study within 18 months
