Brief Summary: RATIONALE Amifostine may be effective in reducing pain numbness tingling and other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well amifostine works in reducing pain numbness tingling and other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy in patients who have received paclitaxel for solid tumors
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the percentage of patients with solid tumors who have persistent paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy who benefit defined as a decrease of at least 20 on their FUNCTIONAL ASSESSMENT OF CANCER THERAPY GYNECOLOGIC ONCOLOGY GROUP NEUROTOXICITY FACTGOG-Ntx FACT-GOG-NTX score from treatment with subcutaneous amifostine
Determine whether there is sufficient evidence of reversal activity of this drug in these patients to justify a phase III study

Secondary

Compare the acute toxic effects of this drug administered subcutaneously in these patients vs IV administrations of this drug historically andor during the GOG-0192 study
Determine the capability of the Weinstein Enhanced Sensory Test to provide objective quantitative evidence for improvement in patients who have subjective improvement as self-reported on the FACT-GOG-NTX scale
Determine whether any benefit in patients treated with this drug is transient or lasts at least 8 weeks

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study

Patients receive amifostine subcutaneously three times weekly for 4 weeks in the absence of symptom progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients achieving a complete or partial response receive an additional 4 weeks of therapy

Neuropathy symptoms are assessed using the FACT-GOG-NTX questionnaire administered at baseline weekly during therapy and at 12 weeks and the Weinstein Enhanced Sensory Test administered at baseline and at 4 8 and 12 weeks

Patients are followed at 12 weeks

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 10-20 months
