S9720 Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic, Recurrent, or Refractory Endometrial Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or refractory endometrial cancer.

TLK286 (Telcyta) in Combination With Carboplatin (Paraplatin) Versus Doxil in Platinum Refractory or Resistant Ovarian Cancer
Completed
The purpose of this research study is to determine if TLK286 given in combination with carboplatin is more effective than liposomal doxorubicin in treating women who have recurrent ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer, that is refractory or resistant to platinum chemotherapy.

Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation With or Without Stromagen Following Chemotherapy in Treating Women With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow doctors to give higher doses of chemotherapy and kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether Stromagen improves the success of stem cell transplantation in women with breast cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of Stromagen during stem cell transplantation following chemotherapy in treating women with metastatic breast cancer.

Fludeoxyglucose F18 Positron Emission Tomography Imaging In Assessing Patients Before and After Treatment for Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Unknown
RATIONALE: Imaging procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F18 positron emission tomography (\^18FDG-PET), may improve the ability to detect disease progression and help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and plan more effective treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well \^18FDG-PET imaging works in detecting disease progression and determining response to treatment in patients who are undergoing chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Gemcitabine and Carboplatin Followed By Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Stage IIIB or Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, carboplatin, and docetaxel, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective for stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of gemcitabine and carboplatin followed immediately by docetaxel with that of giving delaye... Read More

Fludarabine, Carboplatin, and Topotecan in Treating Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Leukemia or Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of fludarabine, carboplatin, and topotecan in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory acute leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome.

Fludarabine/Carboplatin/Topotecan w/Thalidomide for Relapsed/Refractory AML, CML and MDS
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Combining chemotherapy with thalidomide may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining fludarabine, carboplatin, and topotecan with thalidomide in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemi...
