Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so
they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells.
Combining more than one drug with surgery and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. It
is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is most effective in treating
patients with Ewing's sarcoma.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare various combination chemotherapy regimens plus
surgery and radiation therapy in treating patients who have Ewing's sarcoma.
