RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Indinavir may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill sarcoma cells. Combining vaccine therapy and indinavir with autologous T-cell transplantation may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving vaccine therapy together with indinavir and autologous T-cell transplantation works in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent pediatric sarcomas.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |

Drug: indinavir sulfate Drug: therapeutic autologous dendritic cells Procedure: peripheral blood stem cell transplantation |

Study Design: | Treatment |
Official Title: | Pilot Study of Autologous T Cell Transplantation With Vaccine Driven Expansion of Anti-Tumor Effectors After Cytoreductive Therapy in Metastatic Pediatric Sarcomas |
Study Start Date: | December 1997 |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE:
Beginning the same day as peptide-pulsed APDC vaccination, patients receive oral indinavir 3 times daily for 16 weeks. Treatment continues in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Patients are followed every 6 weeks for 6 months, every 3 months for 6 months, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually for 3 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 34-45 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-3 years.
Ages Eligible for Study: | up to 35 Years |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
Diagnosis of previously untreated, fusion protein bearing, metastatic malignancies of the following histologic subtypes:
Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors including:
Recurrent disease at least 1 year after completion of prior antineoplastic therapy for children over age 5 (more than 6 months for age 5 and under)
