Patients with Ewing sarcoma metastatic to the bone marrow are not required to meet bone marrow criteria for study eligibility and are not evaluable for hematologic toxicity.

• - Must have adequate renal function based on age.

Emergent radiotherapy to preserve vital organ function is permitted. Participants who receive emergent radiation will not be eligible for window therapy.

• - Must have adequate hepatic function defined as total bilirubin ≤3.0 mg/dL.

• - Must have adequate cardiac function defined as shortening fraction ≥28%.

• - Females of childbearing potential and males able to father a child must be willing to practice acceptable methods of birth control to prevent pregnancy.

• - Additional criteria for Group B participants who will receive upfront window therapy (does not apply to participants who opt out of window therapy): - Cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 active agents: Must not be taking any of the following potent CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors within 1 week prior to study entry: azole antifungals (such as fluconazole, voriconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole), rifampin, phenytoin, phenobarbitol, carbamazepine, grapefruit juice and St. John's wort.

• - Must have measurable disease.

• - Must not have received emergent radiation therapy.

• - Serum triglyceride level ≤ 300 mg/dL and serum cholesterol ≤ 300 mg/dL.

• - Random or fasting glucose within the upper limits of normal for age.

If random glucose is elevated, fasting glucose must be within normal range.

• - SGOT (AST) and SGPT (ALT) ≤3.0 x upper limit of normal for age.

Exclusion Criteria:

• - Participant is pregnant or breastfeeding.

• - Inability or unwillingness of research participant or legal guardian/representative to give written informed consent.

• - Participant has a prior history of malignancy, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer.

Participants with history of skin cancer must have 5 years elapse since that diagnosis, be in remission, and must not have received chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation therapy.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

• - To estimate the response rate to two initial courses of temsirolimus, temozolomide and irinotecan in previously untreated patients with high-risk Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

• - To estimate the overall survival and progression-free survival in participants with ESFT treated with these approaches.

• - To estimate the time to progression in participants with ESFT treated in Group B (high risk).

• - To estimate the cumulative incidence of local failure following local control paradigm in this trial.

Group A: Participants will receive interval compressed (every 2 weeks) alternating courses of chemotherapy with vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (VDC) and with ifosfamide and etoposide (IE). Doxorubicin will be omitted following a total cumulative dose of 375 mg/m^2. Local control measures (surgery and/or radiation therapy) will be instituted after 6 courses of chemotherapy. Total duration of treatment is approximately 29 weeks. Group B: Participants eligible for the window therapy will receive two courses (21 days duration each) of mTOR inhibitor, temsirolimus, in combination with temozolomide and irinotecan. Irinotecan (20 mg/m^2) will be administered IV on a protracted schedule of daily for 5 days, 2 days off, repeated daily x 5 [(qdx5)x2], temozolomide (100 mg/m^2) PO daily x 5 days and temsirolimus 35 mg/m^2 IV weekly on day 1 and 8. Following window treatment (weeks 1

• - 6), participants will proceed to induction chemotherapy (weeks 7 - 33) consisting of interval compressed (every 2 weeks) alternating courses of chemotherapy with vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (VDC) with ifosfamide and etoposide (IE).

Doxorubicin will be omitted following a total cumulative dose of 375 mg/m^2. Local control measures (surgery and/or radiation therapy) will be instituted after 6 courses of induction chemotherapy (week 19). Participants whose tumors respond to window therapy will receive temsirolimus, temozolomide and irinotecan at weeks 29 and 31 in place of ifosfamide and etoposide. Following induction therapy, participants will receive six 21-day courses of maintenance therapy consisting of bevacizumab IV on day 1 and daily oral sorafenib and low-dose cyclophosphamide day 1 through day 21.

Arms

Active Comparator: Group A (Standard Risk)

Participants will receive vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide and etoposide. Doxorubicin will be omitted following a total cumulative dose of 375 mg/m^2. Depending on the size and location of the participant's tumor, they will have surgery alone, radiation alone, or surgery followed by radiation. Local control measures (surgery and/or radiation therapy) will be instituted after 6 courses of chemotherapy. Total duration of treatment is approximately 29 weeks.

Active Comparator: Group B (High Risk)

Participants will receive vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, etoposide, irinotecan, temozolomide, temsirolimus, bevacizumab, and sorafenib. Depending on the size and location of the participant's tumor, they will have surgery alone, radiation alone or surgery followed by radiation.
