I. Determine the response rate in children with recurrent or refractory brain tumors, sarcomas, or neuroblastomas treated with topotecan. (Brain tumor and neuroblastoma strata closed to accrual effective 07/02/2001) II. Assess the toxicity of this regimen in a larger group of patients treated at the currently defined maximum tolerated dose.
