ABSTRACT
This phase Ill trial studies using risk factors in determining treatment for children with favorable
tissue (histology) Wilms tumors (FHWT). Wilms Tumor is the most common type of kidney
cancer in children, and FHWT is the most common subtype. Previous large clinical trials have
established treatment plans that are likely to cure most children with FHWT, however some
children still have their cancer come back (called relapse) and not all survive. Previous
research has identified features of FHWT that are associated with higher or lower risks of
relapse. The term "risk" refers to the chance of the cancer coming back after treatment. Using
results of tumor histology tests, biology tests, and response to therapy may be able to improve
treatment for children with FHWT.
