Brief Summary: RATIONALE Herpesvirus is found in Kaposis sarcoma lesions in most patients it is therefore possible that the herpesvirus has a role in causing Kaposis sarcoma Cidofovir is an antiviral drug that acts against many types of herpesvirus and may be an effective treatment for Kaposis sarcoma

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of cidofovir in treating patients with Kaposis sarcoma with or without HIV infection
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Assess the antitumor activity of intravenous cidofovir in patients with Kaposis sarcoma KS with and without human immunodeficiency virus HIV infection II Assess the effect of intravenous cidofovir on the load of KS-associated herpesvirushuman herpesvirus-8 in KS lesions and peripheral blood mononuclear cells by quantitative polymerase chain reaction III Assess the toxicity of cidofovir in KS patients with and without HIV infection IV Assess the effect of cidofovir on angiogenic cytokines related to the pathogenesis of KS

OUTLINE All patients receive intravenous cidofovir weekly for 2 weeks then every other week for 6 months Patients with a complete or partial response may continue treatment until disease progression intervenes

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Up to 25 evaluable patients will be entered over approximately 6 months if there are at least 2 responses in the first 15 patients
