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 flavopiridol in treating patients who have metastatic malignant melanoma.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Assess the efficacy of flavopiridol in patients with previously untreated metastatic malignant melanoma.

* Assess the toxicity of this treatment in these patients.

* Assess the time to progression, early progression rate, and response duration in these patients when treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive flavopiridol IV over 1 hour on days 1-3. Treatment continues every 21 days for a maximum of 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed at 4 weeks, and then every 3 months until disease progression or death.
