Brief Summary: RATIONALE Tissue plasminogen activator and captopril may help the body generate angiostatin Angiostatin may stop the growth of cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor

PURPOSE This phase III trial is studying the side effects and best dose of tissue plasminogen activator and captopril and to see how well they work in treating patients with progressive metastatic cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the maximum tolerated dose and toxicity of captopril and tissue plasminogen activator tPA in patients with progressive metastatic cancer
Determine the in vivo generation of angiostatin by western analysis in patients treated with this regimen

Secondary

Determine the antitumor effect of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study

Patients receive tissue plasminogen activator tPA IV over 6 hours and oral captopril twice daily on days 1-5 Courses repeat every 14 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients who achieve a complete response CR receive 2 additional courses beyond CR

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of tPA and captopril until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity
