About

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give SU5416 to HIV-infected patients with AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). SU5416 may prevent the growth of KS tumors.

In the absence of unacceptable toxicity, responding patients may continue on SU5416 in 4-week treatment cycles for a maximum of 1 year or until the presence of unacceptable toxicity or tumor progression.
