Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Bladder Cancer, Breast Cancer, Carcinoma of Unknown Primary, Esophageal Cancer, Gastric Cancer, Head and Neck Cancer, Lung Cancer, Melanoma (Skin), Ovarian Cancer, Pancreatic Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Sarcoma

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus filgrastim in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.
