ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: | NCT00867178 |
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy 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. A peripheral blood stem cell transplant may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy. This may allow more chemotherapy to be given so that more tumor cells are killed.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects of giving vorinostat and isotretinoin together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well it works in treating young patients who have undergone surgery for embryonal tumors of the central nervous system.
