Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with advanced kidney cancer Drugs used in chemotherapy such as vorinostat work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the antitumor activity of vorinostat SAHA in terms of objective response and progression rate in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I Evaluate the safety and tolerability of this drug in terms of toxicity profile in these patients
II Evaluate overall survival progression-free survival and survival rate at 12 months in patients treated with this drug
III Correlate changes in biologic measurements with outcomes of patients treated with this drug
OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study
Patients receive oral vorinostat SAHA twice daily on days 1-3 8-10 15-17 and 22-24 Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients may have the option of continuing treatment beyond 52 weeks at the discretion of the investigator
After completion of study treatment patients are followed within 1 month and then approximately every 2 months thereafter
