Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving gemcitabine together with imatinib mesylate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying gemcitabine and imatinib mesylate to see how well they work compared with gemcitabine alone in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable kidney cancer.

Interventions

  • GENETIC gene expression analysis
  • GENETIC protein expression analysis
  • OTHER immunohistochemistry staining method
  • DRUG imatinib mesylate
  • DRUG gemcitabine hydrochloride
