Study 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.

Primary Outcome

In order for a patient to be a confirmed objective responder, they must achieve a PR or CR on consecutive evaluations, at least 4 weeks apart. The proportion of patients who achieve a confirmed objective response to treatment will be estimated by the standard binomial estimator, i.e., the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions and normalization of tumor biomarkers. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30%
