RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of imatinib mesylate in treating patients who have relapsed or refractorysolid tumors of childhood.

Condition	Treatment or Intervention	Phase
Ewing's family of tumors childhood soft tissue sarcoma Gastrointestinal Cancer metastatic cancer Neuroblastoma Osteosarcoma	Drug: imatinib mesylate  Procedure: enzyme inhibitor therapy  Procedure: protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy	Phase II

Further Study Details: 

OBJECTIVES:

• Determine the response rate of patients with relapsed or refractory pediatric solid tumors treated with imatinib mesylate.
• Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.
• Determine the time to progression in patients treated with this drug.
• Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients.
• Correlate response with c-kit and platelet-derived growth factor receptor expression in patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to disease (Ewing's sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor vs osteosarcoma vs neuroblastoma vs other).

Patients receive oral imatinib mesylate once or twice daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 100 patients (10-25 per stratum) will be accrued for this study within 12 to 18 months.

Ages Eligible for Study:  up to  30 Years,  Genders Eligible for Study:  Both
