Brief Summary: The purpose of this clinical trial is to establish the safest doses for the combination of a farnesyl transferase inhibitor R115777 plus topotecan in patients with advanced solid tumors previously treated or beyond standard therapy of clinical benefit Maximum tolerated dose dose limiting toxicity and the activity of this combination will be assessed

This chemotherapy regimen is a two-pronged attack at the way cancer cells replicate R115777 is a compound that may inhibit cancer cell growth by interfering with the p21 ras oncogene while topotecan a topoisomerase-1 inhibitor works on cancer cells not subject to control by the ras oncogene Animal studies suggest that the combination may be synergistic Another advantage is that R115777 can be taken by mouth
