Brief Summary: RATIONALE Pemetrexed disodium may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gemcitabine work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining pemetrexed disodium with gemcitabine may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining pemetrexed disodium with gemcitabine in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the urothelium
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the response rate in patients with previously untreated advanced cancer of the urothelium treated with pemetrexed disodium and gemcitabine
Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients

Secondary

Determine the overall survival and time to progression in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive pemetrexed disodium IV over 10 minutes on day 1 and gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8 Patients also receive cyanocobalamin intramuscularly once every 9 weeks and folic acid orally once daily beginning on day -6 and continuing until 3 weeks after the completion of study therapy Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 24-46 patients will be accrued for this study within 15 -18 months
