Brief 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 and combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy in treating adult patients with brain cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the complete and partial response rate of patients with adult medulloblastoma primitive neuroectodermal tumor or disseminated ependymoma treated with preradiation combination chemotherapy
Determine the progression free survival and overall survival of these adult patients treated with combination chemotherapy followed by craniospinal radiation
Determine the toxic effects associated with this treatment in these patients

OUTLINE Patients receive cisplatin IV over 6 hours etoposide IV and vincristine IV over 1-2 minutes on day 1 etoposide IV and cyclophosphamide IV over 1-2 hours on days 2-3 filgrastim G-CSF subcutaneously SC on days 4-13 and vincristine IV over 1-2 minutes on day 15 Treatment repeats every 42 days for up to 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Within 4-6 weeks after the last chemotherapy course patients undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6 to 7 weeks

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years every 6 months for 3 years and then annually for 5-10 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 33 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years
