CONSOLIDATION THERAPY: Patients receive vincristine sulfate IV on day 1 in weeks 1, 2, 7-10, 13-16, 19, and 20; topotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5 in weeks 1, 7, and 15; cyclophosphamide IV over 15-60 minutes on days 1-5 in weeks 1, 7, and 15, and over 30-60 minutes on day 1 in weeks 9, 13, and 19; ifosfamide IV over 1 hour and etoposide IV over 1- 2 hours on days 1-5 in weeks 3, 5, 11, 17, and 21; and doxorubicin hydrochloride IV on days 1 and 2 in weeks 9,13, and 19. Patients received Dexrazoxane with doxorubicin hydrochloride in weeks 13 and 19.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Patients with newly diagnosed, biopsy confirmed, extracranial, non-metastatic Ewing sarcoma or primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of bone or soft tissue are eligible for this study; note:

* For the purpose of this study, chest wall tumors with ipsilateral pleural effusions, ipsilateral positive pleural fluid cytology or ipsilateral pleural based secondary tumor nodules will be considered localized disease
* Patients with regional node involvement, based on clinical suspicion confirmed by pathologic documentation are considered to be non-metastatic
* Patients with discontinuous osseous lesions within the same bone are considered to be non-metastatic
* Tumors arising in the bony skull (extra-dural) are considered to be extracranial
* Patient eligibility will be based on a diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma or PNET by institutional pathologist
* No prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy is allowed; patients should only have had a biopsy of the primary tumor without an attempt at complete or partial resection; patients will still be eligible if unplanned excision was attempted or accomplished as long as adequate imaging was obtained prior to surgery
* Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >= 70mL/min/1.73 m^2 or serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:

* 1 month to < 6 months: 0.4 mg/dL
* 6 months to < 1 year: 0.5 mg/dL
* 1 to < 2 years: 0.6 mg/dL
* 2 to < 6 years: 0.8 mg/dL
* 6 to < 10 years: 1 mg/dL
* 10 to < 13 years: 1.2 mg/dL
* 13 to < 16 years: 1.5 mg/dL (male), 1.4 mg/dL (female)
* >= 16 years: 1.7 mg/dL (male), 1.4 mg/dL (female)
* Total bilirubin < 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age
* Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) (aspartate aminotransferase [AST]) or serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) (alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age
* Shortening fraction of >= 27% by echocardiogram, or ejection fraction of >= 50% by radionuclide angiogram
Minimum age
No limit
Maximum age
50 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
* Patients must have no evidence of metastatic disease; metastatic disease are lesions which are discontinuous from the primary tumor, are not regional lymph nodes and do not share a body cavity with the primary tumor; if there is any doubt whether lesions are metastatic, a biopsy of those lesions should be taken

* Skeletal lesions in adjacent bones (trans-articular)
* Contralateral pleural effusion and contralateral pleural nodules
* Distant lymph node involvement
* Patients with pulmonary nodules are considered to have metastatic disease if the patient has:

* Solitary nodule > 0.5 cm or multiple nodules of > 0.3 cm unless biopsied and negative for Ewing's
* Biopsies of solitary nodule =< 0.5 cm or multiple nodules =< 0.3 cm are not required but if performed and positive indicate metastatic disease
* Patients whose tumors arise in the dural and intra-dural soft tissues of the cranium and spine are not eligible
* Patients with pathologic diagnoses other than Ewing sarcoma will be excluded
* Patients diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma as a second malignant neoplasm are not eligible if they have received chemotherapy or radiation for the treatment of their primary malignancy
* Pregnant women will not be entered on this study; pregnancy tests must be obtained in female patients who are post-menarchal; lactating females may not participate unless they have agreed not to breastfeed their infants; males or females of reproductive potential may not participate unless they have agreed to use an effective contraceptive method for the duration of the study treatment
* All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent
* All institutional, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and National Cancer Institute (NCI) requirements for human studies must be met
