Brief Summary: RATIONALE Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of tipifarnib in treating young patients who have refractory leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the maximum tolerated dose and toxicity profile of tipifarnib in pediatric patients with refractory leukemia
Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients
Determine the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients

Secondary

Analyze the gene expression profile of leukemic blasts from these patients before and after treatment with this drug
Determine circulating levels of nerve growth factor and correlate these levels with clinical neurotoxicity from this drug in these patients

OUTLINE This is an open-label dose-escalation study

Patients receive oral tipifarnib every 12 hours on days 1-21 Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of tipifarnib until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity At least 9 additional patients are treated at the MTD

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 12-34 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years
