Brief Summary: RATIONALE Interleukin-2 may stimulate a persons white blood cells to kill neuroblastoma cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-2 in treating children with stage IV neuroblastoma who have received induction therapy and peripheral stem cell transplantation
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the maximum dose that can be administered in an ambulatory setting among three dose regimens in children with stage IV neuroblastoma II Determine the highest tolerated level if a sustained increase in NK-cell number is observed III Determine the type duration and reversibility of side effects at the three dose levels IV Confirm the chosen dose level

OUTLINE This is a randomized parallel open label multicenter study Part I Patients receive one of three doses of interleukin-2 IL-2 subcutaneously beginning 20 to 40 days following autologous stem cell reinfusion IL-2 is administered for 5 consecutive days every 14 days for up to 3 months for a total of 6 courses Cohorts of 5 patients are entered at each dose level of IL-2 until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose at which 3 or more patients experience dose limiting toxicity Part II Additional patients receive IL-2 at the dose level below the MTD These patients are stratified according to prior therapy melphalan plus megatherapy vs total body irradiation or meta-iodobenzylguanidine scan plus melphalan vs busulfan containing regimens Patients are followed at 1 week

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 25 patients will be accrued for this study
