Background: On the fifth National Wilms Tumor Study, treatment for clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) included combined vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (regimen I) plus radiation therapy (RT), yielding 5‐year event‐free survival (EFS) rates of 100%, 88%, 73%, and 29% for patients who had with stage I, II, III, and IV disease, respectively. In the Children's Oncology Group study AREN0321 of risk‐adapted therapy, RT was omitted for stage I disease if lymph nodes were sampled, and carboplatin was added for stage IV disease (regimen UH‐1). Patients who had stage II/III disease received regimen I with RT. Methods: Four‐year EFS was analyzed for patients enrolled on AREN0321 and on those enrolled on AREN03B2 who received AREN0321 stage‐appropriate chemotherapy. Results: Eighty‐two patients with CCSK enrolled on AREN0321, 50 enrolled on AREN03B2 only. The 4‐year EFS rate was 82.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 74.8%–91.4%) for AREN0321 and 89.6% (95% CI, 81.3%–98.7%) for AREN03B2 only (p =.28). When combining studies, the 4‐year EFS rates for patients who had stage I (n = 10), II (n = 47), III (n = 65), and IV (n = 10) disease were 90% (95% CI, 73.2%–100.0%), 93.4% (95% CI, 86.4%–100.0%), 82.8% (95% CI, 74.1%–92.6%), and 58.3% (95% CI, 34%–100.0%), respectively. There were no local recurrences among seven patients with stage I disease who were treated without RT. One stage I recurrence occurred in the brain, which was the most common site of relapse overall. Among patients with local stage III tumors, neither initial procedure type, margin status, nor lymph node involvement were prognostic. Conclusions: Patients with stage I CCSK had excellent outcomes without local recurrences when treated without RT. Patients with stage IV disease appeared to benefit from a carboplatin‐containing regimen, although their outcomes remained unsatisfactory. Further research is needed to improve outcomes for patients with advanced‐stage disease (ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers NCT00335556 and NCT00898365). The results of this study indicate that treatment of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney can be risk‐adapted based on disease stage, radiotherapy should be omitted for patients with stage I disease if lymph nodes are sampled, and patients with stage IV disease appear to benefit from a carboplatin‐containing regimen. With treatment according to the Children's Oncology Group AREN0321 study, most relapses occurred within 3 years, and the most common sites of recurrence were in the central nervous system.
