Purpose
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as FR901228 (depsipeptide), work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well FR901228 works in treating patients with advanced cancer of the urothelium that has progressed or recurred after receiving one chemotherapy regimen.

Experimental: Treatment
Depsipeptide

Drug: Depsipeptide
Depsipeptide wil be given 13 mg/m^2 through an intravenous (IV) over 4 hours on day 1, 8, and 15 for every 28 days (1 cycle = 28 days) until progression. Patients achieving a complete response (CR) will receive two additional cycles of treatment, and then be removed from protocol treatment.

Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the response (confirmed complete and partial) in patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium that has progressed after prior chemotherapy when treated with FR901228 (depsipeptide) .
- Determine progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with this drug.
- Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of this drug in these patients.
- Determine, preliminarily, the effects of this drug on reversing tumor promoter gene methylation in these patients.
- Correlate, preliminarily, tumor DNA in plasma with response or outcome in patients treated with this drug.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive FR901228 (depsipeptide) IV over 4 hours on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving a complete response receive 2 additional courses of treatment.
Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study.
