Chemotherapy Before and After Surgery in Treating Children With Wilm's Tumor
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by National Cancer Institute (NCI), April 2008
Sponsors and Collaborators: University Hospitals, Leicester
Societe Francaise Oncologie Pediatrique
Children's Cancer and Leukaemia Group
Gesellschaft fur Padiatrische Onkologie und Hamatologie - Germany
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00047138
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving combination chemotherapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so it can be removed during surgery. Giving more chemotherapy after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen after surgery is most effective in treating Wilm's tumor.

PURPOSE: Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy before and after surgery in treating children who have Wilm's tumor.
