Summary

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of 1-methyl-D-tryptophan in treating patients with metastatic or refractory solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery. Biological therapies, such as 1-methyl-D-tryptophan, may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by stimulating the immune system.
