Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as vincristine fluorouracil and semustine work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Biological therapies such as BCG may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective than BCG in treating colon cancer that has been removed by surgery

PURPOSE This randomized phase III clinical trial is studying giving fluorouracil together with semustine and vincristine to see how well they work compared with giving BCG in treating patients with Dukes B or Dukes C colon cancer that has been removed by surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Obtain information to define subsets of colon cancer patients at high risk of recurrence II Correlate pathologic and biologic parameters with disease-free interval and survival III Determine the value of surgical and ancillary techniques in management of colon cancer IV Compare disease-free interval and survival after curative resection vs chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracilmethyl-CCNUvincristine vs BCG immunotherapy V Relate the total lymphocyte count to the course of the disease VI Determine the feasibility of conducting a trial employing immunotherapy in a surgical adjuvant setting VII Identify appropriate future protocols based on data generated in the study
