Brief Summary: Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of tipifarnib in treating older patients who have previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

I To determine the complete response rate of R115777 tipifarnib in previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia AML in a elderly patients age 75 and b patients age 65 with AML preceded by myelodysplastic syndrome MDS using a chronic dosing schedule

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

I To determine progression-free and overall survival in patients with previously untreated AML treated with R115777 using a chronic dosing schedule

II To determine the duration of response in patients with previously untreated AML treated with R115777 using a chronic dosing schedule

III To determine the effect of R115777 on the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase MAPK and phosphatidylinositol-45-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha PI3K in leukemic cells

IV To determine the effect of R115777 on processing of the farnesylated protein HDJ-2

V To determine the toxicities of R115777 when given in a chronic dosing schedule

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive oral tipifarnib twice daily on days 1-21 Patients with a complete or partial response hematologic improvement or stable disease continue treatment every 29-63 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients with a complete response after the second course of therapy receive 2 additional courses of therapy

Patients are followed for survival

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 125 patients will be accrued for this study within 11-17 months
