Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well irinotecan works in treating patients with metastatic or inoperable thyroid cancer.
