    GOALS AND OBJECTIVES (SCIENTIFIC AIMS) 1. To evaluate whether the addition of vincristine/irinotecan to cyclophosphamide/ carboplatin/etoposide alternating with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide improves the event-free survival (EFS) of patients with newly diagnosed Stage 4 diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor (DAWT) as compared to historical controls. 2.To evaluate whether the addition of vincristine/irinotecan to cyclophosphamide/ carboplatin/etoposide alternating with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide improves the EFS of patients with Standard-Risk relapsed favorable histology Wilms tumor (SRrFHWT) as compared to historical controls. 3. To evaluate whether the addition of vincristine/irinotecan to cyclophosphamide/ carboplatin/etoposide alternating with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide improves the overall survival (OS) of patients with newly diagnosed Stage 4 DAWT as compared to historical controls. 4. To evaluate whether the addition of vincristine/irinotecan to cyclophosphamide/ carboplatin/etoposide alternating with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide improves the OS of patients with SRrFHWT as compared to historical controls. 5. To evaluate whether the addition of vincristine/irinotecan to cyclophosphamide /carboplatin/etoposide alternating with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide improves the EFS and OS of patients with newly diagnosed Stage 2 and 3 DAWT as compared to historical controls. 6. To establish EFS and OS for High-Risk (HRrFHWT) and Very High-Risk (VHRrFHWT) relapsed favorable histology Wilms tumor treated with ifosfamide/carboplatin/etoposide alternating with cyclophosphamide/ topotecan.

    Read Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

    Inclusion Criteria:

    • Patients with newly diagnosed stages 2 - 4 diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor must be enrolled on APEC14B1, consented to Part A - Eligibility Screening, and have received an initial stratum assignment showing DAWT (if anaplasia first identified at diagnostic, pre-treatment nephrectomy or biopsy) or a final stratum assignment showing DAWT (if anaplasia first noted at delayed nephrectomy) prior to enrollment on AREN1921. Prior enrollment on APEC14B1 is not an eligibility requirement for patients with relapsed favorable histology Wilms tumor.
    • Patients must be =< 30 years old at study enrollment
    • Patients with the following diagnoses are eligible for this study:
    • Newly diagnosed stages 2 - 4 diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor as confirmed by central review
    • Favorable histology Wilms tumor at first relapse. Relapsed FHWT patients must have previously achieved remission for their initial FHWT diagnosis to be eligible for this study. The relapse risk groups are defined as follows, regardless of radiation therapy:
    • Standard-Risk relapse: Patients who received two chemotherapy agents for frontline therapy; primarily actinomycin D and vincristine
    • High-Risk relapse: Patients who received three chemotherapy agents for frontline therapy; primarily vincristine, actinomycin D and doxorubicin or vincristine, actinomycin D and irinotecan
    • Very High-Risk relapse: Patients who received four or more chemotherapy agents as part of initial therapy; primarily regimen M or its variations
    • Patients with newly diagnosed DAWT must have had histologic verification of the malignancy. For relapsed FHWT patients, biopsy to prove recurrence is encouraged, but not required
    • Note: For relapsed FHWT patients, an institutional pathology report confirming favorable histology Wilms tumor (from relapse, if available, or from original diagnosis) must be available for upload prior to initiation of protocol therapy
    • Patients with newly diagnosed Stages 2 - 4 diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor must be enrolled on AREN1921 within 2 weeks of the tumor-directed surgery or biopsy procedure that first confirms a diagnosis of DAWT, whether at initial diagnostic procedure or delayed nephrectomy (such surgery/biopsy is day 0). For patients who received prior therapy for presumed favorable histology Wilms tumor, later confirmed to have diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor at subsequent review of the initial biopsy
    • Patients with newly diagnosed DAWT who undergo upfront nephrectomy must have at least 1 lymph node sampled prior to study enrollment
    • Patients must have a performance status corresponding to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scores of 0, 1 or 2. Use Karnofsky for patients > 16 years of age and Lansky for patients =< 16 years of age
    • Patients must have a life expectancy of >= 8 weeks
    • Diffuse Anaplastic Wilms Tumor: Patients with diffuse anaplastic histology must have had no prior systemic therapy, except in the following situations:
    • Patients with diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor who received no more than 12 weeks of pre nephrectomy chemotherapy for what was originally presumed to be favorable histology Wilms tumor, subsequently confirmed to be diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor at delayed nephrectomy
    • Patients with diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor who received no more than 6 weeks of chemotherapy following upfront biopsy, initiated within 14 days of biopsy, for presumed favorable histology Wilms tumor based on institutional review, but subsequently corrected to diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor based on the initial stratum assignment on APEC14B1-REN

    • Note: Patients who received prior therapy for presumed favorable histology Wilms tumor, later identified to have diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor as per above, must begin study treatment starting at cycle 3 (week 7) of regimen UH 3. Patients who received emergency radiation to preserve organ function are eligible as noted. Patients who received radiation as part of standard of care for presumed newly diagnosed favorable histology Wilms tumor, along with chemotherapy as noted above, prior to identification of diffuse anaplasia, are also eligible

  • Video Education with Result Dependent dIsclosure (VERDI) - NCT05225428

    The overall study objective is to identify and evaluate strategies to improve the accessibility of the video education with result dependent disclosure (VERDI) model, increasingly utilized as a pre-genetic testing (pretest) education alternative in clinical practice, to better serve a more diverse patient population at risk for hereditary cancers. This developmental work is imperative as the VERDI models utilized at DFCI in research studies #18-411 (ProActive), #17-409 (ProGen), #19-068 (OPT-IN), and #19-652 (GeneBOPP) have been overwhelmingly used in DFCI patients of Caucasian ancestry. While DFCI participants have responded well, in an effort improve the generalizability of VERDI and expand it to a diverse patient population, qualitative feedback is being sought explicitly from patients who self-identify as Black and Latinx patients. A brief qualitative assessment among a small, cohort of English and Spanish speaking Black and Latinx participants will first be conducted to identify refinements to video education (VE) that may increase the utility of the VERDI model for patients in these traditionally underserved populations. Participants in the qualitative assessment study will receive VE exclusively for pretest education, followed by a short interview with research staff regarding their experiences with the VE model. The qualitative assessment study will precede a large-scale randomized controlled trial of VERDI vs standard genetic counseling (SGC), as informed by the results of the developmental study. We hypothesize that the data yielded from the completion of the study objectives will assist in further refining the VERDI model and its use in clinical practices for the purpose of increasing genetic testing uptake and improving patient outcomes in minority populations that have been underrepresented in similar research to date.
