Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well FR901228 works in treating patients with recurrent small cell lung cancer FR901228 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I To evaluate the response rate of patients with histologically or cytologically proven small cell lung cancer SCLC treated with depsipeptide in the sensitive relapse setting
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I To describe the overall survival and failure-free survival of patients with histologically proven recurrent SCLC treated with depsipeptide
II To evaluate the toxicity of depsipeptide in patients with relapsed SCLC III To evaluate surrogate biological markers from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and buccal epithelial cells p53 acetylation histone acetylation p21CIP1 expression
OUTLINE
Patients receive FR901228 depsipeptide IV over 4 hours on days 1 8 and 15 Treatment repeats every 28 days for at least 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients who have continuing tumor response or stable disease after 6 courses receive 2 additional courses beyond best response
Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 3 years
