Brief Summary: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of thalidomide in treating patients who have myelofibrosis Thalidomide may stop the growth of myelofibrosis by stopping blood flow to the cancer cells
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

I To investigate whether thalidomide a potent inhibitor of angiogenic and fibrogenic growth factors is an effective therapeutic agent in patients with MMM Specifically to assess whether thalidomide improves anemia andor organomegaly in patients with MMM

II To assess the effects of thalidomide on the myelofibrotic stroma with respect to microvascular architecture and angiogenesis collagen and reticulin deposition and the expression of the mediating growth factors bFGF TGF-b and PDGF and their respective receptors

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive oral thalidomide once daily for 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients with stable or responding disease may receive 1 additional year of therapy

Patients are followed every 6 months until 5 years from study entry
