Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, carboplatin, and gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving gemcitabine together with either cisplatin or carboplatin works in treating patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic malignant salivary gland tumor (cancer).
