Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and topotecan, work in different
ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from
dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of topotecan when
given together with carboplatin and to see how well they work in treating patients with
relapsed or metastatic cervical cancer.
