Brief Summary: RATIONALE Giving drugs such as docetaxel directly into the pleura after surgery to drain the pleural effusion may help keep fluid from building up again

PURPOSE This phase I trial is studying the side effects best way to give and best dose of intrapleural docetaxel given after surgery in patients with malignant pleural effusion
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the maximum tolerated dose of intrapleural docetaxel in patients with malignant pleural effusion

Secondary

Determine the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients
Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in plasma and pleural fluid from these patients
Determine the response in patients treated with this drug

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study

Patients undergo thorascopic surgery to drain the malignant pleural effusion An intrapleural catheter Pleurx catheter is then inserted for subsequent docetaxel instillation Approximately 24 hours after surgery patients receive docetaxel intrapleurally over 3 minutes via the Pleurx catheter The Pleurx catheter is then clamped for 4 hours and the patient is placed in several different positions to ensure uniform distribution of docetaxel throughout the pleural cavity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of intrapleural docetaxel 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

After completion of study treatment patients are followed at weeks 1 and 3 and then monthly thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 8-24 patients will be accrued for this study
