RATIONALE: Determination of genetic markers for soft tissue sarcoma or rhabdomyosarcoma may help doctors identify patients who are at risk for therapy-related leukemia.
PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study genetic testing of children with soft tissue sarcoma or rhabdomyosarcoma to identify children who are at risk of developing leukemia from the chemotherapy used to treat sarcoma.

Genetic: clonality analysis Genetic: microsatellite instability analysis Genetic: mutation analysis |
Study Type: | Observational |
Official Title: | Clinical and Biological Predictors of Therapy-Related Leukemia |
Estimated Enrollment: | 321 |
Study Start Date: | December 1998 |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: Blood is collected from patients at diagnosis (preferably before chemotherapy or transfusion), at end of therapy, and at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years after therapy.
Blood specimens are examined by clonality analysis (HUMARA), variant cell frequency (glycophorin A assay), GST NAT2/CYP1A1 genotyping, microsatellite instability, and ras mutation detection (single strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing of mutant alleles).
Patients do not receive the results of the genetic testing and the results do not influence the type or duration of treatment.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 321 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years.
