Open for EnrollmentWhy is this study being done?
OBJECTIVES: Primary - Evaluate the overall and event-free survival of younger patients with newly diagnosed stage I favorable histology Wilms' tumor (< 2 years of age and < 550gms) treated with nephrectomy only (very low risk), or with newly diagnosed stage III favorable histology Wilms tumor with possible nephrectomy followed by vincristine, dactinomycin, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and radiotherapy (standard risk). Secondary - Determine the effects of adding doxorubicin hydrochloride to the regimen for patients with stage I or II favorable histology found to have a high-risk biological marker. - Determine whether the omission of adjuvant therapy increases the incidence of contralateral kidney lesions in patients with very low-risk disease treated by nephrectomy and observation only. - Determine whether the omission of adjuvant therapy increases the incidence of renal failure in patients with very low-risk disease who have metachronous relapse. - Correlate study outcomes in patients with standard-risk disease with biological data from tissue collections on protocol study COG-AREN03B2. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to clinical and biological risk factors (very low risk vs standard risk). - Stratum I (very low-risk disease): Patients undergo nephrectomy only. If they meet criteria, they are then observed periodically for 5 years. Patients with recurrent disease undergo surgery (immediate or delayed) and receive chemotherapy as in stratum III. Patients with no metachronous renal disease receive radiotherapy. Patients with metachronous disease undergo renal-sparing surgery and chemotherapy as in stratum III, but no radiotherapy. Treatment continues for up to 25 weeks. - Stratum II (standard-risk, stage I or II disease with adverse biological marker): Patients undergo nephrectomy. Between 9 and 14 days post-nephrectomy, patients receive vincristine IV beginning on day 1, every week for 10 weeks then every 3 weeks for a total of 15 doses. Patients receive dactinomycin IV beginning day 1, alternating every 3 weeks with doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over 15-120 minutes for a total of 5 doses of dactinomycin and 4 doses of doxorubicin. Treatment continues for up to 25 weeks. - Stratum III (standard-risk, stage III disease): Patients undergo nephrectomy, if feasible, or biopsy. For patients who undergo biopsy only, definitive surgery is undertaken at week 7 or 13. Between 9 and 14 days post-nephrectomy, patients receive vincristine IV beginning on day 1 every week for 10 weeks then every 3 weeks for a total of 15 doses. Patients receive dactinomycin IV beginning day 1, alternating every 3 weeks with doxorubicin hydrochloride IV for a total of 5 doses of dactinomycin and 4 dose of doxorubicin hydrochloride. Patients undergo radiotherapy over 5-7 days after nephrectomy. Treatment continues for up to 25 weeks. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 8 years.

Study of Kidney Tumors in Young Patients
Location:
Rochester, MNTrial status:
Open for EnrollmentWhy is this study being done?
OBJECTIVES: Primary - Classify patients with renal tumors by histological categorization, surgico-pathological stage, presence of metastases, age at diagnosis, tumor weight, and loss of heterozygosity for chromosomes 1p and 16q, to define eligibility for a series of therapeutic studies. - Maintain a biological samples bank to make specimens available to scientists to evaluate additional potential biological prognostic variables and for the conduct of other research by scientists. Secondary - Monitor outcome for those patients who are not eligible for a subsequent therapeutic study. - Describe whether the pulmonary tumor burden correlates with outcome in patients with stage IV disease. - Describe the sensitivity and specificity of abdominal CT scan by comparing it with surgical and pathologic findings for identification of local tumor spread beyond the renal capsule to adjacent muscle and organs, lymph node involvement at the renal hilum and in the retroperitoneum, preoperative tumor rupture, and metastases to the liver. - Compare the sensitivity and specificity of pre-operative abdominal CT scan and MRI for the identification and differentiation of nephrogenic rests and Wilms' tumor in children with multiple renal lesions. - Correlate the method of conception (natural vs assisted reproductive technology) with the development of Wilms' tumor. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Tumor tissue, blood, and urine samples are collected for research studies, including immunohistochemistry. CT scans and MRIs are also performed. Loss of heterozygosity analyses (chromosome 1p and 16q) are performed by extraction of DNA. DNA polymorphisms are assayed by polymerase chain reaction using standard methodology. Leftover specimens are archived for future studies. Patients are followed periodically for 5 years. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: There are no sample size goals for this study.

Bevacizumab With or Without Monoclonal Antibody Therapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic Kidney Cancer
Location:
Rochester, MNTrial status:
Open for EnrollmentWhy is this study being done?
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare the progression-free survival at 12 and 24 weeks for bevacizumab alone or in combination with TRC105 (anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Toxicity and Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) response rate for the combination compared to single agent bevacizumab. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate tumor tissue expression of endoglin (CD105), transforming growth factor, beta receptor II (TGFBR2), activin A receptor type II-like 1 (ACVRL1) and transforming growth factor, beta receptor 1 (TGFBR1) kinase from pre- and post-treatment tissue samples in order to determine whether CD105 and stem cell activation occurs after exposure to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy as predicted by laboratory models, and whether exposure to anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 affects these changes. II. A primary goal of tissue analysis will be to generate preliminary data to correlate levels of CD105, TGFBR2, ACVRL1 and TGFBR1 in tissue with response to bevacizumab in combination with anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 compared to bevacizumab alone. III. To compare the soluble CD105 levels at baseline and after treatment between the group receiving bevacizumab alone and the group receiving bevacizumab in combination with anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105. IV. To compare TGFBR2 levels at baseline and after treatment between the group receiving bevacizumab alone and the group receiving bevacizumab in combination with anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105. V. To evaluate whether circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be detected in this patient population using parylene membrane filter technology, and whether changes in CTC counts and CD105 expression on CTCs during therapy correspond to imaging and clinical response. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM I: Patients receive bevacizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15. ARM II: Patients receive bevacizumab as in arm 1 and anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 IV over 1-4 hours on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. In both arms, treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study therapy, patients are followed for 4 weeks.
