Brief Summary: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ixabepilone in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the response rate and toxicity of BMS-247550 given in two dosing schedules in taxane-naïve and taxane-exposed patients.

II. To provide information about the response rate and toxicity of BMS-247550 given in two dosing schedules.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To measure surviving expression and correlate with the therapeutic responsiveness to BMS-247550.

II. To determine the changes in tumor vascular density and endothelial cell apoptosis in response to therapy and the correlation of these changes to outcome.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are stratified according to prior taxane therapy (yes vs no) and ECOG performance status (0 vs 1). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

Arm I: Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 1 hour on days 1-5. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Arm II: Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

In both arms, patients achieving complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses past CR if a minimum of 6 courses have been administered.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.
