Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Giving chemotherapy drugs before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well neoadjuvant chemotherapy works in treating young patients who are undergoing surgical resection for high-risk hepatoblastoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the efficacy and short-term toxicity of intensified neoadjuvant chemotherapy in children with high-risk hepatoblastoma undergoing surgical resection
Increase the rate of complete surgical resection in these patients by fully implementing liver transplantation as a valid treatment option for tumor removal when partial liver resection or other surgical options remain unfeasible even after extensive preoperative chemotherapy
Determine prospectively the role of this regimen in rendering unresectable tumors resectable in these patients
Determine the accuracy of initial imaging in predicting the surgical options after treatment with this regimen for patients presenting with unresectable disease

Secondary

Determine the overall survival and event-free survival of patients treated with this regimen with an acceptable overall toxicity
Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients
Determine the response rate in patients treated with this regimen
Determine whether response to this regimen defined by the modified RECIST criteria can be used for better monitoring of response in these patients
Determine whether a fall in alpha-fetoprotein during this neoadjuvant regimen can be used as a prognostic factor in these patients
Determine prospectively radiological surgical and pathological characteristics of the tumor that might identify possible novel factors that might influence treatment choice and outcome in these patients

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study

Intensified neoadjuvant chemotherapy Patients receive cisplatin IV over 24 hours on days 1 8 15 29 36 43 57 and 64 and doxorubicin IV over 1 hour OR over 24 hours on days 8 9 36 37 57 and 58 Patients determined to have resectable disease proceed to surgery

Patients determined to have unresectable disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy receive additional neoadjuvant chemotherapy comprising carboplatin IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 22 and doxorubicin IV over 1 hour OR over 24 hours on days 1 2 3 22 23 and 24

Treatment continues in the absence of unacceptable toxicity

Surgery Patients determined to have resectable disease undergo complete resection and possibly liver transplantation
Adjuvant chemotherapy Patients who undergo complete surgical resection receive carboplatin IV over 1 hour on day 1 and doxorubicin IV over 1 hour OR over 24 hours on days 1 and 2 Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for a total of 3 courses

NOTE Patients who received additional neoadjuvant chemotherapy for unresectable disease do not receive adjuvant chemotherapy

Patients are followed every 2-3 months for 2 years every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years

Peer Reviewed and Funded or Endorsed by Cancer Research UK

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 23-57 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years
