Brief Summary: RATIONALE Photodynamic therapy uses light and drugs that make cancer cells more sensitive to light to kill cancer cells Combining photodynamic therapy with surgery may be an effective treatment for malignant mesothelioma

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining photodynamic therapy with surgery in treating patients who have malignant mesothelioma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the feasibility of adjuvant photodynamic therapy with large diffuser fibers in patients with malignant mesothelioma undergoing surgery
Compare results of this regimen in these patients to historical controls
Determine the toxic effects of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a pilot study

Patients receive porfimer sodium IV over 5-10 minutes on day 1 Patients undergo pleurectomy or pleuropneumonectomy followed by intracavitary photodynamic therapy on day 3

Patients are followed at 1 month every 4 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years
