N2000-01: Double Infusion of Iodine I 131 Metaiodobenzylguanidine Followed by Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation

Summary

RATIONALE: Giving iodine I 131 metaiodobenzylguanidine (\^131I-MIBG) may kill neuroblastoma cells by delivering radiation directly to the tumor. A stem cell transplant using the patient's stem cells may be able to replace blood-forming cells destroyed by radiation therapy. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of a double infusion of \^131I-MIBG followed by autologous stem cell transplantation in treating patients with refractory neuroblastoma.
