Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well FR901228 works in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer Drugs used in chemotherapy such as FR901228 work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing FR901228 may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the efficacy and safety of FR901228 depsipeptide in patients with metastatic breast cancer
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the clinical activity of this drug in terms of progression-free survival in these patients
OUTLINE This is a multicenter study
Patients receive FR901228 depsipeptide IV over 4 hours on days 1 8 and 15 Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 12-37 patients will be accrued for this study within 24-123 months
