Active comparator: Stratum 2 - Stage I FH Wilms' tumor and age 24 months and over or tumor weight at least 550 g; stage I focal anaplastic (FA) or diffuse anaplastic (DA) Wilms' tumor: Patients receive regimen EE-4A comprising dactinomycin (DACT) IV weekly on weeks 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 and vincristine sulfate (VCR) IV weekly on weeks 1-10, 12, 15, and 18.

Active comparator: Stratum 3 - Stage II FH Wilms' tumor: Patients receive regimen EE-4A comprising dactinomycin (DACT) IV weekly on weeks 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 and vincristine sulfate (VCR) IV weekly on weeks 1-10, 12, 15, and 18.

Active comparator: Stratum 4 - Stage III FH Wilms' tumor; stage II or III FA Wilms' tumor: After conventional surgery (nephrectomy), patients receive regimen DD-4A comprising dactinomycin DACT IV weekly on weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV weekly on weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; and vincristine sulfate VCR IV weekly on weeks 1-10, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24. Patients also undergo abdominal radiation therapy.

Active comparator: Stratum 5 - Stage IV FH or FA Wilms' tumor: patients receive regimen DD-4A comprising dactinomycin DACT IV weekly on weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV weekly on weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; and vincristine sulfate VCR IV weekly on weeks 1-10, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24. Patients also undergo abdominal radiation therapy, and whole lung radiation therapy (at the discretion of the investigator).

Active comparator: Stratum 6 - Stage V FH, FA, or DA Wilms' tumor: After bilateral conventional surgery (biopsy), patients with FH receive chemotherapy as in stratum 1 (dactinomycin IV weeks 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 and vincristine sulfate IV weeks 1-10, 12, 15, and 18) or 4 (dactinomycin IV weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; and vincristine sulfate VCR IV weeks 1-10, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24). Patients with FA or DA receive chemotherapy as in stratum 7 (vincristine sulfate VCR IV weeks 1, 2, 4-8, 10-13, 18, and 24; cyclophosphamide sulfate (CTX) IV over 1 hour on days 1-3 of weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 and on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV (beginning after CTX infusion) weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; and etoposide (VP-16) IV over 1 hour (beginning after CTX infusion) on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is administered subcutaneously (SC) beginning 24 hours after completion of chemotherapy.

Active comparator: Stratum 7 - Stages I-IV clear cell sarcoma): After conventional surgery (nephrectomy), patients receive vincristine sulfate VCR IV weekly on weeks 1, 2, 4-8, 10-13, 18, and 24; cyclophosphamide sulfate (CTX) IV over 1 hour on days 1-3 of weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 and on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV (beginning after CTX infusion) weekly on weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; and etoposide (VP-16) IV over 1 hour (beginning after CTX infusion) on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is administered subcutaneously (SC) beginning 24 hours after completion of chemotherapy and continuing until blood counts recover. Patients also undergo abdominal radiotherapy and whole lung radiotherapy (if pulmonary metastases are present).

Active comparator: Stratum 8 - Stages II-IV DA Wilms' tumor: After conventional surgery (nephrectomy), Patients receive treatment as in stratum 7 (patients receive vincristine sulfate VCR IV weekly on weeks 1, 2, 4-8, 10-13, 18, and 24; cyclophosphamide sulfate (CTX) IV over 1 hour on days 1-3 of weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 and on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21; doxorubicin hydrochloride IV (beginning after CTX infusion) weekly on weeks 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24; and etoposide (VP-16) IV over 1 hour (beginning after CTX infusion) on days 1-5 of weeks 3, 9, 15, and 21. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is administered subcutaneously (SC) beginning 24 hours after completion of chemotherapy and continuing until blood counts recover. Patients also undergo abdominal radiotherapy and whole lung radiotherapy (if pulmonary metastases are present).

Active comparator: Stratum 9 - Stages I-IV rhabdoid tumor: After conventional surgery (nephrectomy), patients receive carboplatin IV on days 1-2 and VP-16 IV over 1 hour (beginning after carboplatin infusion) on days 1-3 of weeks 0, 3, 9, 12, 18, and 21 and CTX IV over 1 hour on days 1-5 of weeks 6, 15, and 24. Filgrastim G-CSF is administered as on stratum 7. Patients also undergo radiation therapy. After completion of chemotherapy, patients undergo second-look conventional surgery (laparotomy) and conventional surgery (partial nephrectomy or wedge excision if feasible). After conventional surgery (second-look surgery), patients without persistent or residual disease resume chemotherapy.


Treatment: Drugs: doxorubicin hydrochloride
Source and Pharmacology: An anthracycline antibiotic isolated from cultures of Streptomyces peucetius. Binds to DNA and inhibits nucleic acid synthesis, with its major lethal effect occurring during the S phase of the cell cycle. Has some topoisomerase II inhibitory activity. Since it is primarily excreted by the liver, any liver impairment may enhance toxicity. 40% to 50% is excreted in the bile; \<5% in the urine. The drug has a very short initial t½ of \<20 minutes and a terminal t½ of 17 hours. Animal studies indicate cytotoxic levels persist in tissue for as long as 24 hours.
