Summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research trial is studying biomarkers in samples from young patients with soft tissue sarcoma.

Detailed description

OBJECTIVES: * To identify the key components of driver pathways of primary and secondary soft tissue sarcomas. * To perform the next-generation sequencing on primary versus normal on undifferentiated sarcomas. OUTLINE: Genomic DNA and RNA samples from undifferentiated sarcoma tumors are analyzed by next-generation sequencing for somatic mutations. Normal matched lymphocytes and tissue are also analyzed.
