Brief Summary: RATIONALE Dimethylxanthenone acetic acid may stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of dimethylxanthenone acetic acid in treating patients with solid tumors that have not responded to previous therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the toxicity of dimethylxanthenone acetic acid DMXAA in patients with solid tumors II Establish a maximum tolerated dose for this drug in these patients III Determine the pharmacokinetics of DMXAA in these patients IV Determine the effect of this regimen on coagulation parameters TNF and other cytokine production nitric oxide and serotonin production in these patients V Assess the efficacy of this drug in this patient population VI Determine the effect of this drug on tumor vasculature by evaluating any changes apparent on MRI scans in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose escalation multicenter study Patients receive dimethylxanthenone acetic acid DMXAA IV over 20 minutes once weekly for 6 weeks followed by 2 weeks of rest An additional course of therapy may be administered in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression Cohorts of 3 patients receive escalated doses of DMXAA until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 patients experience dose limiting toxicity

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A minimum of 3 patients will be accrued to each dose level used to determine the maximum tolerated dose
