Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with recurrent or persistent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cavity cancer Drugs used in chemotherapy such as vorinostat work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the 6-month progression-free survival rate in patients with recurrent or persistent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cavity cancer treated with vorinostat
II Determine the toxicity of this drug in terms of the frequency and severity of adverse reactions in these patients
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the clinical response rate partial response and complete response in patients treated with this drug
II Determine the duration of progression-free survival and overall survival of patients treated with this drug
III Determine the impact of prognostic variables eg platinum sensitivity performance status and cellular histology in patients treated with this drug
OUTLINE This is a nonrandomized multicenter study
Patients receive oral vorinostat twice daily on days 1-14 Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
After completion of study treatment patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 22-60 patients will be accrued for this study within approximately 1 year
