Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as amrubicin and irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of amrubicin when given together with irinotecan in treating patients with recurrent or relapsed extensive stage small cell lung cancer.
