Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the response rate in patients with refractory or recurrent glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic astrocytoma treated with paclitaxel TAX and topotecan TOPO with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor G-CSF support II Determine survival in these patients III Describe the toxicity of TAXTOPOG-CSF IV Evaluate tumor p53 expression in relation to response to TAXTOPOG-CSF

OUTLINE All patients receive paclitaxel topotecan and G-CSF every 3 weeks for at least 2 courses and until 2 courses beyond maximum response Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years then every 6 months for relapse and survival
