Brief Summary: Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor Drugs used in chemotherapy such as irinotecan use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining thalidomide with irinotecan may kill more tumor cells This randomized phase I trial is studying the side effects and best way to give irinotecan and thalidomide in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine whether thalidomide alters the pharmacokinetics of irinotecan in patients with advanced solid tumors
II Determine whether irinotecan alters the pharmacokinetics of thalidomide in these patients
III Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients IV Determine the observed antitumor response in patients treated with this regimen
OUTLINE This is a randomized study Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms
Arm I Patients receive irinotecan IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 22 and oral thalidomide once daily on days 15-28
Arm II Patients receive irinotecan as in arm I and oral thalidomide once daily on days -6 to 7
All patients undergo disease re-evaluation at 6 weeks Patients with stable or responsive disease may receive additional courses comprising irinotecan IV on day 1 and oral thalidomide once daily on days 1-21 Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 35 patients will be accrued for this study
