Metronomic Therapy for Pediatric Solid Tumors

This study is exploring a different way to treat children and young adults (ages 1 to 31) with certain solid tumors like rhabdomyosarcoma, osteosarcoma, and Ewing sarcoma, especially if there's a high chance their cancer will return. It uses a treatment called "metronomic therapy," which means giving lower doses of medicines continuously. The study will use a combination of Bevacizumab, Cyclophosphamide, Valproic Acid, and Temsirolimus. The goal is to see if this approach, given after initial treatment when there's minimal disease, can improve how long patients live without their cancer returning. Researchers will also track any side effects. This study aims to enroll 20 participants.
