Primary Outcome(s)

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For each randomisation, EFS is defined as the time from randomisation to first event, where an event is progression without complete remission, recurrence (following complete remission), diagnosis of second malignancy or death.
Patients who have not had an event will be censored at their last follow-up date. Patients lost to follow-up without an event will be censored at the date of their last consultation.

Secondary Objective: The objective of the zoledronic acid randomisation (R2) is to determine whether the addition of zoledronic acid to consolidation chemotherapy, as assigned at R1, is associated with improved clinical outcome in patients with localised ESFT or with pulmonary and/or pleural metastases only at diagnosis.

Primary end point(s): Event-free survival (EFS)

Main Objective: The objective of the induction/consolidation chemotherapy randomisation (R1) is to compare the VIDE strategy (VIDE induction and VAI/VAC consolidation) with the VDC/IE strategy (compressed VDC/IE induction and IE/VC consolidation). The event-free survival (EFS) of the two chemotherapy regimens will be compared, and also the relative toxicity experienced by patients both before and after local control of the primary tumour.

Secondary Outcome(s)

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: • Overall Survival (OS) – evaluated continually
• Adverse events and toxicity – evaluated after each course of chemotherapy, or as reported
• Histological response of the primary tumour to induction chemotherapy if surgery is performed as local control – evaluated at the time of surgery following induction chemotherapy
• Primary tumour and lung and/or pleural metastases response-evaluated after 2 cycles (Arm A), or 3 cycles (Arm B).
• Achievement of local control at the end of treatment – evaluated at the time of surgery following induction chemotherapy or at the end of treatment or six months after the end of treatment
• Growth parameters (R2 only)– evaluated at baseline, end of treatment and at follow up
• Jaw osteonecrosis (R2 only)– evaluated at the end of or during treatment

Secondary end point(s): • Overall Survival (OS)
• Adverse events and toxicity, defined by NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0
• Histological response of the primary tumour to induction chemotherapy if surgery is performed as local control.
• Primary tumour and lung and/or pleural metastases response
• Achievement of local control at the end of treatment
• Growth parameters and jaw osteonecrosis (R2 only)
