Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gemcitabine and docetaxel work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining gemcitabine with docetaxel may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine with docetaxel in treating patients who have recurrent osteosarcoma recurrent Ewings sarcoma or unresectable or locally recurrent chondrosarcoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the objective response rate in patients with recurrent osteosarcoma or Ewings sarcoma or unresectable or locally recurrent chondrosarcoma treated with sequential gemcitabine and docetaxel

Secondary

Determine the time to progression in patients treated with this regimen
Assess the toxicity of this regimen in these patients
Compare the pharmacokinetics of this regimen vs gemcitabine alone in these patients
Obtain tumor samples for cDNA microarray analysis of gene expression and development of cell lines and xenotransplantation models

OUTLINE This is a nonrandomized multicenter study

Patients are stratified according to diagnosis recurrent osteosarcoma vs recurrent Ewings sarcoma vs unresectable or locally recurrent chondrosarcoma

Patients receive gemcitabine intravenously over 90 minutes on days 1 and 8 and docetaxel intravenously over 1 hour on day 8 Patients also receive filgrastim G-CSF subcutaneously SC beginning on day 9 and continuing until blood counts recover Patients may receive pegfilgrastim SC on day 9 once per course as an alternative to G-CSF Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Optional blood samples are collected at baseline and periodically during study for pharmacokinetics studies Optional tumor tissue samples from biopsy or surgical resection are analysed for cDNA microarray analysis of gene expression

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 120 patients 40 per stratum will be accrued for this study within 17-24 months
