The patient had severe pain in his lower back that radiated to both thighs scored 9 out of 10. The patient has had positive history of sickle cell crises since childhood. He also had the same symptoms in past two weeks treated with oxycodone which was not beneficial to his pain. His PCP sent him to the emergency department to receive intra venous pain modulators. The patient is afebrile within the normal blood pressure. No splenomegaly was detected in the physical exam. He has no positive history of drug allergy. He won't smoke or uses any illicit drugs. The lab study is as bellow: Hgb: 8 g/dl WBC: 10000 /mm3 Plt: 300000 /ml MCV: 106 fL Hemoglobine electrophoresis: 91% HbS 6%HbF 3%HbA2 AST: 22 U/L ALT: 43 U/L Alk P: 53 U/L Ferritin: 1200 ng/ml

Clinical trial eligibility criteria: eligible ages (years): 4.0-16.0,  Solid Tumors AGE: greater than or equal to 4 years and less than 17 years of age. Histologically confirmed solid tumors, which may but are not limited to rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft tissue sarcomas, Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors, osteosarcoma, neuroblastoma, Wilms' tumor, hepatic tumors, germ cell tumors, and brain tumors with the exception that histologic confirmation is not required for patients with optic or brainstem gliomas. Patients must have measurable or evaluable disease. PRIOR The patient's cancer must have relapsed after or failed to respond to frontline curative therapy and there must not be other potentially curative treatment options available Patients must have fully recovered to less than or equal to grade 1 from the acute toxic effects of all prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: The last dose of all myelosuppressive anticancer drugs must be at least 3 weeks prior to study entry Growth factors: The last dose of growth factors such as filgrastim and epoetin must be at least one week prior to study entry, the last dose of long-acting colony stimulating factors, such as pegfilgrastim, must be 2 weeks prior to study entry Investigational anti-cancer agents: The last dose of all investigational agents must be at least 30 days prior to study entry Biologic anti-cancer agents: The last dose of non-myelosuppressive biologic agents for the treatment of the patient's cancer (example, retinoids) must be at least 7 days prior to study entry Radiation therapy: The last dose of radiation to more than 25% of marrow containing bones (pelvis, spine, skull) must be at least 4 weeks prior to study entry, TBI and craniospinal radiation must be completed at least 4 months prior to study entry. The last dose of all other local palliative radiation must be at least 2 weeks prior to study entry Stem Cell Transplantation. Patients must be at least 2 months post-autologous transplant and recovered from treatment-related toxicities. Patients who have received an allogeneic transplant are excluded. -Patients with brain tumors must be on a stable or tapering dose of corticosteroids for 7 days prior to the date of the baseline scan performed for the purpose of assessing response to therapy on this study. Patients must have a Lansky (less than or equal to 10 years old) or Karnofsky (greater than 10 years old) score of greater than or equal to 60%. Peripheral absolute neutrophil count greater than or equal to 1,500/microliter and a platelet count greater than or equal to 75,000/microliter independent of transfusion, and a hemoglobin of greater than or equal to 8 gm/dl (transfusion permitted to achieve this level) ALT (SGPT) and AST (SGOT) must be less than or equal to 2.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) Bilirubin must be less than or equal to ULN. If the patient has Gilbert's syndrome, normal bilirubin is not required but should be discussed with the PI or study chair  Patients with severe uncontrolled infections or other unrelated systemic illnesses, which in the judgment of the Principal or Associate Investigator would compromise the patient's ability to tolerate trabectedin or are likely to interfere with the study procedures or results. Patients with known history of xeroderma pigmentosum or other diseases with reduced DNA repair. Pregnant or breast-feeding females. Sexually active patients must be willing to use an effective form of birth control. Patients currently receiving other investigational agents. Patients who have received allogeneic stem cell transplants. Patients who have had prior therapy with trabectedin (ET-743, Yondelis)
