Purpose
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors to learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.
PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with high-risk Wilms tumor.

OBJECTIVES:
- To assess genomic gains and losses in samples from high-risk Wilms tumor patients, including 50 favorable histology Wilms tumors that relapse (RFHWT) and 50 anaplastic Wilms tumors (UHWT) using a high-density genetic platform to survey for recurrent copy number variations and allelic imbalances.
- To define transcription patterns within these samples using a high-throughput platform for global gene expression.
- To define DNA methylation patterns within these samples using a high-throughput platform.
- To identify genetic mutations involved in the pathogenesis of Wilms tumor and in the development of relapse and anaplasia through the study of these samples using next-generation sequencing tools.
- To facilitate the integration of the above databases and allow meaningful access by investigators through the infrastructure provided by TARGET, including its data portal and associated caBIG tool.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Archived tumor tissue samples are analyzed for DNA copy number determination, gene expression, DNA methylation, and genomic re-sequencing by array-based methods, including PCR analysis, methylation-specific reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR), and quantitative RT-PCR.
