Summary
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor
killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use
different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining
monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy plus
etoposide in treating patients who have neuroblastoma.
