Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Colony-stimulating factors such as sargramostim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a persons immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining phenylbutyrate dexamethasone and sargramostim in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the objective response complete hematologic remission induction of phenylbutyrate dexamethasone and sargramostim GM-CSF in patients with refractory or relapsed t821 acute myeloid leukemia
Determine the correlation between histone acetylation differentiation and apoptosis in bone marrow mononuclear cells with response rate in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the overall survival of patients on this regimen
Determine the correlation between histone acetylation differentiation and apoptosis in bone marrow mononuclear cells with pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients
Determine the safety and toxicity of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive phenylbutyrate IV continuously and sargramostim GM-CSF subcutaneously on days 1-7 and 15-21 Patients also receive oral dexamethasone on days 1-4 and 15-18 Treatment continues every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity until complete hematologic remission is induced Patients with stable disease at the end of 1 course receive at least 2 additional courses

Patients are followed twice a week for 3 months monthly for 1 year every three months for the next 4 years and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 9-24 patients will be accrued for this study in at least 2 years
