Context: Wilms Tumor / Treatment of Wilms Tumor / Treatment of stage III Wilms tumor

Therapy was augmented for patients with loss of heterozygosity of 1p and 16q who were enrolled in the AREN0533 (NCT00379340) trial. Patients with stage III and stage IV Wilms tumor with loss of heterozygosity were treated with regimen M. The 4-year EFS rate was 90.2%, and the OS rate was 96.1%, compared with a 4-year EFS rate of 61.3% (P = .001) and a 4-year OS rate of 86.0% (P = .087) for patients in the NWTS-5 trial. The study suggested an improvement in survival, but it was not powered to detect differences in survival.[264][Level of evidence C2]
