Registration Number
NCT00070096
Lead Sponsor
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic germ cell tumors that are refractory to cisplatin.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the efficacy of ixabepilone in patients with metastatic cisplatin-refractory germ cell tumors.

* Determine the safety of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 3 hours on day 1. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 10-29 patients will be accrued for this study within 1.3-4 years.
