Patients with localized disease
Patients with metastatic disease
Patients with localized disease will receive six cycles of the combination as "maintenance" therapy following standard chemotherapy. Cycles 4-6 will include: Ifosfamide 2,800 mg/m2/day on days 1-5 Etoposide 100 mg/m2/day on days 1-5 Cycle 7 will include : Cyclophosphamide will be given on days 1 and 2 at a dose of 2,100 mg/m2/day, or for patients < 10 years of age at a dose of 70 mg/kg/day Doxorubicin will be given on days 1 and 2 at a dose of 37.5 mg/m2/day Vincristine will be given on day 1 at a dose of 2 mg/m2 or 0.067 mg/kg (whichever is lower, to a max dose of 2 mg) Cycles 8-13 will include: Irinotecan will be given on 10 days over weeks 1 and 2 of a cycle at a dose of 20 mg/m2/day intravenously Temozolomide will be given daily on the first 5 days of irinotecan administration at a dose of 100 mg/m2/day orally or intravenously
Patients will get 10 cycles of the combination intercalated between the final 4 cycles of standard chemotherapy. Cycles 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, and 17 will include: Irinotecan will be given on 10 days over weeks 1 and 2 of a cycle at a dose of 20 mg/m2/day intravenously Temozolomide will be given daily on the first 5 days of irinotecan administration at a dose of 100 mg/m2/day orally or intravenously Cycles 6, 9, and 12 will include: Ifosfamide 2,800 mg/m2/day on days 1-5 Etoposide 100 mg/m2/day on days 1-5 Cycle 15 will include: Cyclophosphamide will be given on days 1 and 2 at a dose of 2,100 mg/m2/day, or for patients < 10 years of age at a dose of 70 mg/kg/day Doxorubicin will be given on days 1 and 2 at a dose of 37.5 mg/m2/day Vincristine will be given on day 1 at a dose of 2 mg/m2 or 0.067 mg/kg (whichever is lower, to a max dose of 2 mg)
