Study Summary

RATIONALE: Rosiglitazone may help liposarcoma cells develop into normal fat cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of rosiglitazone in treating patients who have liposarcoma.

Primary Outcome

Evidence of biological response can be measured or defined by intracytoplasmic microvesicular lipid accumulation, consistent with adipocytic differentiation in liposarcoma cells. Biological response can also be measured by clinically stable disease for x\>3 months, as well as standard clinical trial criteria for "objective clinical response." Complete response is defined by total resolution of all detectable disease lasting for at least four weeks. Partial remission is a decrease of over 50% in
