RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving chemotherapy drugs before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed during surgery.
PURPOSE: Phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy given before surgery in treating children who have localized neuroblastoma.

Official Title: | Treatment Of Children Over The Age Of 1 Year With Unresectable Localized Neuroblastoma Without MYCN Amplification |
Estimated Enrollment: | 100 |
Study Start Date: | December 2000 |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive carboplatin IV over 1 hour and etoposide IV over 2 hours on days 1-3 (courses 1 and 3). Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour on days 1-5 (or orally on days 2 and 3), doxorubicin IV over 6 hours on days 4-5, and vincristine IV on days 1 and 5 (courses 2 and 4). Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses.
Patients then undergo surgical resection followed by 2 additional courses of chemotherapy.
Patients are followed at months 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, and 60.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 100 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years.
