Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well gossypol acetic acid works in treating patients with recurrent, metastatic, or primary adrenocortical cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gossypol acetic acid, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.

  • Stage III Adrenocortical Carcinoma
  • Stage IV Adrenocortical Carcinoma

Interventions

DRUG

R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid
