A Prospective Phase 3 Study of Patients with Newly Diagnosed Very Low-risk and Low-risk Fusion Negative Rhabdomyosarcoma.

Primary Aims:
1.1.1 - To evaluate the failure free survival (FFS) of patients with very low-risk (VLR)
rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) (fusion negative (FN), Stage 1, Clinical Group (CG) I, MYOD1 wildtype (WT), TP53 (WT) when treated with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA).

1.1.2 - To evaluate the FFS of patients with low-risk (LR) RMS (FN, Stage 1 CG II, or Stage 2 CG I/II or CG III (orbit only), MYOD1 WT, TP53 WT) when treated with 12 weeks of vincristine, dactinomycin and cyclophosphamide (VAC) followed by 12 weeks of VA.

Secondary Aims:
1.2.1 - To evaluate the overall survival (OS) of patients with VLR RMS treated with 24 weeks of VA.

1.2.2 - To evaluate the OS of patients with LR RMS treated with 12 weeks of VAC followed by 12 weeks of VA.

1.2.3 - To demonstrate the feasibility of central molecular risk stratification of patients with newly diagnosed RMS in the context of a prospective clinical trial.

Exploratory Aims:
1.3.1 - To collect blood and tissue samples for banking at baseline, during treatment, at the end of therapy, and at the time of progression to bank for future research

1.3.2 - To describe the methylation array profile of patients with fusion negative, low-risk rhabdomyosarcoma.

1.3.3 - To describe the outcomes of patients with VLR or LR RMS and MYOD1 or TP53 mutations treated with intensified therapy.
