Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan, vincristine, and doxorubicin, 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 II trial is studying how well giving topotecan together with vincristine and doxorubicin works in treating young patients with refractory stage 4 neuroblastoma.
