TRUE or FALSE?

A

True.

74
Q

WT

Identify the trial

One of the major goals of the trial was to prospectively analyze the
prognostic significance of LOH at chromosomes 1p and 16q..

A

NWTS-5

1995-2001

75
Q

WT

Identify the trial

Patients with stage I FH and anaplastic histology
and stage II FH tumors were treated with 18 weeks of dactinomycin and
vincristine without RT.

Stage I FH tumors in children younger than 24 months of
age and with tumor weight <550 g were treated with surgery alone.

Stage III and
IV FH and stage II to IV focal anaplastic tumors were treated with 24 weeks of
dactinomycin, vincristine, doxorubicin, and irradiation.

Stage II to IV diffuse
anaplastic tumors and stage I to IV CCSK were treated with cyclophosphamide,
vincristine, doxorubicin, and etoposide along with irradiation.

Stage I to IV RTK
was treated with carboplatin, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, and irradiation.

A

NWTS-5

1995-2001

76
Q

WT

Identify the trial

The
RT guidelines were similar to those used in the previous NWTS study except for
anaplastic tumors, where a dose of 10.8 Gy to the flank and abdomen was recommended compared to an age-adjusted schedule used in the previous study.

A

NWTS-5

1995-2001

77
Q

WT

Identify the trial

This was designed with cost containment in mind.

The results
proved that the survival was similar among patients who received standard
course (5 days) or single-dose, pulse-intensive (PI) dactinomycin chemotherapy.
Further, PI therapy was associated with less hematologic toxicity and marked
reduction of treatment costs

A

NWTS-4

1986-1994

78
Q

WT

Identify the trial

The overall objective was to reduce therapy for low-risk patients
(stage I to III FH) and to intensify treatment by adding a fourth drug,
cyclophosphamide, for stage IV tumors with FH and all UH tumors.

A

NWTS-3

1979-1985

79
Q

WT

Identify the trial

The results of this study demonstrated that RT and doxorubicin could be eliminated in children with stage II FH tumors.

Patients with stage III FH tumors who received doxorubicin or 20 Gy had fewer abdominal relapses than those receiving 10 Gy without doxorubicin.

The addition of cyclophosphamide in high-risk patients did not improve outcomes.

A

NWTS-3

1979-1985

80
Q

WT

Identify the trial

This trial showed that in patients with group I tumors, there was no survival
difference between 6 months and 15 months of dactinomycin plus vincristine.
Patients with group II to IV tumors had a superior 2-year RFS of 77% with
doxorubicin, dactinomycin, and vincristine compared with 63% with
dactinomycin and vincristine alone.

A

NWTS-2

1974-1979

81
Q

WT

Identify the trial

This trial showed that postoperative RT was not necessary for children younger
than 2 years of age with group I tumors and that combined dactinomycin and
vincristine for irradiated patients with group II and III tumors was better than
therapy with either agent alone. The RFS with and without RT among patients
with group I tumors younger than 2 years of age was 90% and 88%,
respectively.

A

NWTS-1

1969-1974

82
Q

WT

Identify the study:

Patients with very-low risk WT treated with observation after nephrectomy have 4-year EFS of 90% and 4-year OS of 100%

A

AREN 0532

83
Q

WT

Identify the study:

Patients with FH WT stages I to II with LOH had improvement in 4-year EFS from 75% to 84% with the addition of doxorubicin. (EE4A to DD4A)

A

AREN 0532

84
Q

WT

Identify the study:

Patients with FH WT stages III with LOH had continued excellent outcomes with regimen DD4A.

A

AREN 0532

85
Q

WT

RFS is worse for liver metastases compared to metastases to the lung and other sites.

TRUE or FALSE?

A

False

In a report from
NWTS-4 and NWTS-5, the RFS for patients with FH WT and liver metastases
was 76%, and this was similar to the RFS in patients with lung metastases
(76%), liver and lung metastases (70%), and metastases to other sites (64%).

86
Q

WT

The performance of a tumor biopsy or the use of chemotherapy before definitive surgery is an indication for flank RT in BWT.

TRUE or FALSE?

A

False

87
Q

WT

How much of each kidney must be preserved in order to perform the initial surgery in BWT?
