Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of arsenic trioxide in treating men who have germ cell cancer that has not responded to previous treatment
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the response rate confirmed complete and partial responses in men with refractory testicular or extragonadal germ cell malignancies treated with arsenic trioxide
Determine the overall and progression-free survival of patients treated with this drug
Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of this drug in these patients
Assess the biomarker response rate in patients with elevated biomarkers treated with this drug

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive arsenic trioxide IV over 1-2 hours on days 1-5 Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 3 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients who achieve a confirmed complete or partial response receive up to 3 additional courses past response

Patients are followed every 2 months for 3 years or until disease progression

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 10-40 months
