A Phase I Dose-Escalation Study Of Azacitidine In Combination With Temozolomide In Patients With Unresectable Or Metastatic Soft Tissue Sarcoma or Malignant Mesothelioma
The purpose of this study is to determine safety and toxicity for the combination of Temozolomide and Azacitidine in the treatment of Advanced Soft Tissue Sarcoma or Malignant Mesothelioma. This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm Phase I dose-escalation trial. Patients will be evaluated with complete history and physical as well as laboratory studies (complete blood count, metabolic panel, liver function tests), biopsy, and imaging of all sites of measurable disease. This study will be conducted over the course of 3 years.

A Phase I Trial of Extrapleural Pneumonectomy/Pleurectomy Decortication, Intrathoracic/Intraperitoneal Hyperthermic (IOHC) Cisplatin and Gemcitabine With Intravenous Amifostine and Sodium Thiosulfate Cytoprotection for Patients With Resectable Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
RATIONALE: After removal of visible cancer in the chest, chemotherapy drugs are used to kill or stop tumor cells from dividing, so that they stop growing or/and die. Cisplatin is currently used safely as in intra-operative treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma. This study is aimed to determine if the addition of gemcitabine as a second intracavitary chemotherapy can be accomplished safely. PURPOSE: This is a Phase I trial to study the efficacy of combination chemotherapy consisting of gemcitabine and cisplatin administered in the operating room and put into the chest and abdomen for one hour. We are also looking at the effects of heating the chemotherapy to a temperature of 42 degrees Celsius and the effect of cytoprotection agents: amifostine and sodium thiosulfate to counteract potential side effects of chemotherapy.

A Phase II Study of the Association of Glivec® (Imatinib Mesylate, Formerly Known as STI 571) Plus Gemzar® (Gemcitabine) in Patients With Unresectable, Refractory, Malignant Mesothelioma Expressing Either PDGFR-Beta or C-Kit
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antitumor activity of a combination of Imatinib mesylate and Gemcitabine in patients with unresectable malignant mesothelioma expressing either PDGFR-beta or C-kit

Phase 2 Pharmacological Study of Pemetrexed Administered With Cisplatin and a Vitamin Supplement in Patients With Nonresectable Pleural Mesothelioma
RATIONALE: Pemetrexed may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving pemetrexed together with cisplatin and vitamin B12 may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II clinical trial is studying how well giving pemetrexed together with cisplatin and vitamin B12 works in treating patients with mesothelioma of the chest that cannot be removed by surgery.

A Phase IB, Open-Label, Multicenter Study to Investigate the Effect of Oral LBH589 on Dextromethorphan, a CYP2D6 Substrate, and to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Oral LBH589 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
This study will investigate the effect of oral LBH589 on dextromethorphan, a CYP2D6 substrate, and to assess safety and efficacy of oral LBH589 when used with this co-medication in advanced stage NSCLC or malignant pleural mesothelioma patients

NGR010: A Phase II Study of NGR-hTNF Administered as Single Agent Every 3 Weeks or Weekly in Patients Affected by Advanced or Metastatic Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Previously Treated With no More Than One Systemic Therapeutic Regimen
The main objective of the trial is to document the progression free survival (PFS) in advanced or metastatic malignant pleural mesothelioma patients treated with NGR-hTNF as single agent. Safety will be established by clinical and laboratory assessment according to NCI-CTC criteria.

Pilot Trial of a WT-1 Analog Peptide Vaccine in Patients With Thoracic and Myeloid Neoplasms
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Biological therapies, such as GM-CSF, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Giving vaccine therapy together with GM-CSF may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of vaccine therapy and GM-CSF in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, non-small cell lung cancer, or mesothelioma.

Phase II Study of PXD101 (NSC 726630) as Second-Line Therapy for Treatment of Patients With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
This phase II trial is studying how well PXD101 works as second-line therapy in treating patients with malignant mesothelioma of the chest that cannot be removed by surgery. PXD101 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Extrapleural Pneumonectomy of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) With or Without Hemithoracic Radiotherapy. A Randomized Multicenter Phase II Trial
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed disodium and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving pemetrexed disodium together with cisplatin followed by surgery with or without radiation therapy works in treating patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.
