If total bilirubin is greater than (>) ULN, measure indirect bilirubin to evaluate for Gilbert's syndrome (if direct bilirubin is within normal range, participant may be eligible) ALP <= 2.5*ULN; Trabectedin: if the ALP is >2.5*ULN, then an ALP liver fraction or 5-nucleotidase must be obtained and ULN, AST and ALT 2.5 ULN will be reviewed by the Sponsor before enrollment in the OEP may occur Exclusion Criteria: - Potential participants who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from participating in the study: Prior exposure to trabectedin or dacarabazine, less than 3 weeks from last dose of systemic cytotoxic therapy, radiation therapy, or therapy with any investigational agent, other malignancy within past 3 years. Exceptions: basal or nonmetastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, cervical carcinoma in situ, or Federation Internationale de Gynecologie et d'Obstetrique (FIGO) Stage 1 carcinoma of the cervix - Known central nervous system metastasis - Known significant chronic liver disease, such as cirrhosis or active hepatitis (potential participants who test positive for hepatitis B surface antigen or hepatitis C antibodies are allowed provided they do not have active disease requiring antiviral therapy) - Myocardial infarct within 6 months before enrollment, New York Heart Association Class II or greater heart failure, uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, clinically significant pericardial disease, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemic or active conduction system abnormalities - Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, poorly controlled hypertension or diabetes, ongoing active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situation that may potentially impair the participant's compliance with study procedures - Unwilling or unable to have a central venous catheter - Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to trabectedin, dacarbazine, dexamethasone, or their excipients - Pregnant or breast-feeding - Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the well-being of the participant or the study or prevent the participant from meeting or performing study requirements OEP phase: - Potential participants who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from Participating in the study: Prior exposure to trabectedin, less than 3 weeks from last dose of systemic cytotoxic therapy, radiation therapy, or therapy with any investigational agent, other malignancy within past 3 years. Exceptions: basal or nonmetastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, cervical carcinoma in situ, or Federation Internationale de Gynecologie et d'Obstetrique (FIGO) Stage 1 carcinoma of the cervix does not apply - Treated in any order with at least: an anthracycline and ifosfamide containing regimen, or an anthracycline containing regimen and 1 additional cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen with less than 3 weeks from last dose of systemic anticancer therapy, radiation therapy, or therapy with any investigational agent - Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to dacarbazine does not apply |

| Primary | Overall Survival (OS) | The OS is defined as the time from the date of first dose of study drug to date of death from any cause. If the participant is alive or the vital status is unknown, the participant will be censored at the date the participant will be last known to be alive. | approximately 3 years 8 months (From Study start date [27 May 2011] up to final analysis data cut-off [05 January 2015] | No |
| Secondary | Progression-Free Survival (PFS) | The Progression-Free Survival (PFS) was assessed as median number of months from baseline until the first documented sign of disease progression (increase in disease; radiographic, clinical, or both) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred earlier. Independent Data Monitoring Committee performed ongoing safety monitoring and conducted the interim analysis after 189 death events and 329 PFS events were observed. | approximately 2 years 4 months (From Study start date [27 May 2011] up to interim analysis data cut-off [16 September 2013]) | No |

| Secondary | Objective Response Rate | The objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a Complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best responses. according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST). CR defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to less than 10 millimeter (mm). PR defined as at least 30 percent (%) decrease in sum of the diameters of the target lesions taking as reference the Baseline sum diameters. Confirmed responses are those that persist on repeat imaging study for at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. Independent Data Monitoring Committee performed ongoing safety monitoring and conducted the interim analysis after 189 death events and 329 PFS events were observed. | approximately 2 years 4 months (From Study start date [27 May 2011] up to interim analysis data cut-off [16 September 2013]) | No |
| Secondary | Duration of Response | Duration of response is defined as the time from the date of initial documentation of a response (CR or PR) to the date of first documented evidence of progressive disease (or relapse for participants who experience CR during the study) or death. Independent Data Monitoring Committee performed ongoing safety monitoring and conducted the interim analysis after 189 death events and 329 PFS events were observed. |
