Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well arsenic trioxide works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable cancer of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction Drugs used in chemotherapy such as arsenic trioxide use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

I Determine the response rate and duration of response in patients with advanced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction treated with arsenic trioxide

II Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients

OUTLINE This is an open-label study

Patients receive a loading dose of arsenic trioxide IV over 2 hours on days 1-5 on week 1 Beginning on week 2 patients receive a maintenance dose of arsenic trioxide IV twice weekly thereafter Courses repeat every 4 weeks for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients achieving a complete response CR continue to receive therapy for at least 6 months beyond CR

Patients are followed every 3 months for 6 months or until disease progression
