Summary
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of topotecan and radiation therapy in treating
patients who have solid tumors or lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to
stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses
high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may
kill more cancer cells.
