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 bryostatin 1 in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the response rate of bryostatin 1 in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome. II. Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of bryostatin 1. III. Determine the duration of response and survival of patients receiving this therapy.
