Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Surgery
Patients with completely resectable stage I-IV RCC undergo surgical resection. Patients with incompletely resectable stage III-IV RCC undergo treatment as per physician's choice.
|
Procedure: Conventional Surgery
Patients undergo resection
Other Name: surgery, conventional |
Experimental: Treatment (UH-1)
Patients receive combination chemotherapy comprising vincristine, doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, and carboplatin. Patients whose primary tumors were initially resected undergo radiotherapy once daily 5 days a week for 4-5½ weeks beginning on day 1 in week 1. Patients with delayed primary tumor resection undergo radiotherapy beginning on day 1 in week 13. If the primary tumor was not previously resected, patients undergo resection, if feasible, in week 13. Patients with unresectable clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) receive no further study therapy.

Experimental: Treatment (window/UH-1)
Patients receive vincristine IV on days 1 and 8 and irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5 and 8-12 (course 1). Patients with progressive disease (PD) are treated with regimen UH-1. Patients with stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) receive another course of irinotecan hydrochloride/vincristine window therapy beginning on day 22. After the second course, patients with SD or PD are treated with regimen UH-1 and patients with PR or CR are treated with regimen UH-2.

Patients with delayed primary tumor resection undergo radiotherapy as in regimen UH-1 beginning on day 1 in week 7. If the primary tumor was not previously resected, patients undergo resection, if feasible, in week 7.

Experimental: Treatment (regimen I)
Patients receive vincristine, doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide. Patients whose primary tumors were initially resected (except those with stage I CCSK) undergo radiotherapy as in regimen UH-1 beginning on day 1 in week 1. Patients with delayed primary tumor resection undergo radiotherapy as in regimen UH-1 beginning on day 1 in week 13.

- Event-Free Survival of Patients With Diffuse Anaplastic Wilms' Tumor (DAWT) [ Time Frame: 4 years ]Compare the outcome of patients treated with alternating CyCE/VDCy chemotherapy (with or without vincristine/irinotecan cycles) to a fixed outcome based on that seen for similar patients treated with NWTS-5 (NCT00002610).
- Long-term Survival of Patients With Stage I-IV Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors [ Time Frame: 4 years ]The outcome of these patients will be compared with a fixed outcome based on that seen for similar patients treated with NWTS-5 regimen (NCT00002610).
- Response Rate [ Time Frame: Up to 2 months ]Criteria for response assessed by three-dimensional measurement: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all index lesions and non-index lesions. No new lesions; Partial Response (PR), At least a 65% decrease in the sum of the volumes of the index lesions. No new lesions; Response rate (RR) = CR+PR of patients who received window therapy.
- Event Free Survival Probability [ Time Frame: 4 years ]Event-free survival will be informally compared to that seem for similar patients treated on NWTS-5 (NCT00002610).
- Toxicity Rate [ Time Frame: Up to 4 years ]Percentage of participants with Grade 4 cardiac toxicities, Grade 4 Sinusoidal Obstruction Syndrome (SOS), and treatment-related deaths determined using CTCAE v4.
- Number of Patients With INI1 Mutations in Renal and Extrarenal Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor by Fluorescent in Situ Hybridization [ Time Frame: At baseline ]
- Frequency of TP53 Mutations [ Time Frame: At baseline ]
