Brief Summary: RATIONALE Mistletoe lectin may slow the growth of cancer cells and be an effective treatment for solid tumors

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of mistletoe lectin in treating patients who have refractory advanced solid tumors
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of mistletoe lectin recombinant viscumin in patients with advanced solid tumors who have failed standard therapy
Determine the optimal biologically active dose of mistletoe lectin based on analysis of specific biological surrogate markers including plasma cytokine levels and peripheral counts of activated immune cells and immunological stimulation at the RNA level of the immune cells
Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients
Determine whether induction of antibodies against mistletoe lectin occurs in these patients
Determine whether modification of endothelial parameters occurs in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the objective response rates in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation multicenter study

Patients receive mistletoe lectin recombinant viscumin subcutaneously twice weekly Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 1-6 patients receive escalating doses of mistletoe lectin until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose at which at least 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity Additional patients are treated at the highest dose level immediately preceding the MTD

Patients are followed every 3 months until disease progression or initiation of another therapy

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 25 patients will be accrued for this study
