Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well gefitinib works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

I To determine the 6 month progression free survival rate in patients with progressive advanced neuroendocrine tumors treated with ZD1839

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

I Objective tumor response rate II Progression free survival and time to progression III Improvement in circulating hormone levels IV Overall survival V We will explore the molecular characterization of these tumors in attempt to understand the role of EGFR expression and its inhibition with ZD1839 in neuroendocrine tumors The measurements will be performed on pretreatment and post-treatment tumor biopsies when possible EGFR expression and gene amplification IHC for EGFR and phosphorylated EGFR ISH for gene amplification Activation of the RasRafMAPK pathway IHC for phosphorylated MAPK Cell proliferation Ki-67 staining Apoptosis TUNEL assay

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study Patients are stratified according to disease type carcinoid vs islet cell and other neuroendocrine tumors

Patients receive oral gefitinib once daily on days 1-28 Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients are followed every 3 months until disease progression and then every 6 months for up to 2 years from study entry
