NCT00038142

Brief Summary

Objectives:

  1. 1.To determine if dose intensive Vincristine, Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide and Dexrazoxane (VACdxr) with or without ImmTherTM can improve the 2-year disease-free survival seen with standard VAC therapy.
  2. 2.To evaluate the feasibility and describe the toxicity associated with VACdxr.
  3. 3.To evaluate the feasibility and describe the toxicity of administering ImmTherTM on a weekly basis for 50- 52 weeks.
  4. 4.To determine which therapy (VACdxr+ or VACdxr-) is worthy of further evaluation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 2-year Disease-free Survival (DFS): Effect of Treatment With Combination Drugs in VACdxr Given in High Doses With or Without ImmTher to Help Participants With Ewing's Sarcoma Live Longer

    DFS defined as survival of participants to two years post study entry without relapse.

    2 years

Study Arms (2)

Arm A: VACdxr With ImmTher

EXPERIMENTAL

Chemotherapy repeated every 3 weeks for 6 cycles: Vincristine 2.0 mg/m\^2 (max 2.0 mg) intravenous (IV), Doxorubicin 90 mg/m\^2 IV over 30 minutes, Cyclophosphamide 2.0 g/m\^2 IV daily for 2 days. Dexrazoxane 900 mg/m\^2 IV (30 minutes prior to doxorubicin). ImmTher 900 mcg/m\^2 IV over 1 hour every week x 50-52 weeks.

Limitations and Caveats

Study terminated early leading to small numbers of subjects analyzed; therefore, unable to accrue required number of participants to determine statistical significance.
