COG-AREN0321
Clinical Trial Title | Combination Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy, and/or Surgery in Treating Patients With High-Risk Kidney Tumors |
Trial Status | Closed to Enrollment |
Start Date | 07/24/2006 |
Location | randall-childrens-hospital-at-legacy-emanuel |
Trial Type | Pediatric Cancer (Oncology) |
Specific Condition | Renal (High Risk) |
Description | This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or surgery work in treating patients with high-risk kidney tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. |
Eligibility Criteria | Enrollment on the AREN03B2 Renal Tumor Biology and Classification Study is required PRIOR to enrollment on the COG AREN0321 Age: <30 years old at the time of initial diagnosis Newly diagnosed (Stages I-IV) of the following histological types are eligible
Patients must begin protocol therapy on COG AREN0321 by Day 14 after surgery or biopsy unless medically contraindicated Patients must not have received systemic chemotherapy or radiation therapy prior to treatment on this study UNLESS they were enrolled on the COG AREN0532 or AREN0533 studies and received pre-nephrectomy chemotherapy for what was originally presumed to be favorable histology Wilms tumor Patients with pediatric RCC who previously received chemotherapy for another type of malignancy (not the RCC) or non-malignant condition may enroll on the study Adequate liver and heart function |
