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 exatecan mesylate in treating patients who have metastatic stomach cancer.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the objective response rate of patients with previously untreated metastatic gastric cancer treated with exatecan mesylate (DX-8951f).

* Determine the time to tumor progression in this patient population when treated with this drug.

* Determine the survival at 6 and 12 months in this patient population when treated with this drug.

* Determine the quantitative and qualitative toxic effects of this drug in this patient population.

* Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in the plasma of these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive exatecan mesylate (DX-8951f) IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for at least 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 12-37 patients will be accrued for this study within 12 months.
