Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as E7389, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well E7389 works in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Response Probability (Confirmed Complete and Partial Responses)
- timeFrame
- Every 6 weeks until progression of disease up to a maximum of 3 years after registration
- description
- Response was defined per RECIST. Complete response (CR) was defined as complete disappearance of all baseline measurable and non-measurable disease with no new lesions. Partial response (PR) was defined as at least 30% decrease under baseline of the sum of longest diameters of all target measurable lesions with no unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease and no new lesions. A CR or PR must be confirmed by a second determination at least 4 weeks apart. All disease must have been assessed using the same technique as baseline.
