Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine fluorouracil-uracil and leucovorin in treating patients who have advanced cancer that has not responded to previous therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the maximum tolerated doses of gemcitabine fluorouracil-uracil UFT and leucovorin calcium in patients with advanced refractory cancer
Assess the toxicity of this combination regimen in this patient population
Evaluate this regimen in terms of response rate response duration and overall survival in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose escalation study of gemcitabine and fluorouracil-uracil

Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 8 and 15 Patients receive oral leucovorin calcium immediately followed by oral fluorouracil-uracil UFT three times a day on days 1-21 Courses are repeated every 28 days Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of gemcitabine and UFT until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicities

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study
