Brief Summary: Background

Kaposi sarcoma KS is a type of tumor caused by the Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus KS usually affects the skin but lesions can also appear in the lymph nodes lungs and digestive tract KS is most common in people with compromised immunity but it also appears in otherwise healthy people Researchers want to understand more about how KS develops why it may recur and how it affects the immune system and organs

Objective

To learn more about the natural history of KS

Eligibility

People aged 18 years and older with KS

Design

Participants will be screened They will have a physical exam with blood tests They will have an imaging scan They may need a new biopsy Tissue samples may be cut from their tumor Their ability to perform normal activities will be assessed

Participants will visit the clinic to have their KS evaluated In addition to the imaging scans and other tests performed during screening procedures may include

Eye exam

Ultrasound exam of the heart electrocardiogram

Collection of saliva and urine samples

Biopsies of the skin or lymph nodes

Swabs of the anus and cervix

Photographs of skin lesions

Removal of fluid samples from the space around the lungs intestine or heart

The evaluation visit will be repeated 5 more times over 18 months and then yearly for up to 10 years

Participants will follow their standard treatment for KS during the study
Detailed Description: Background

Kaposi sarcoma KS is a multicentric angioproliferative tumor caused by Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus KSHV that most frequently involves skin but can also involve lymph nodes lungs and gastrointestinal tract It is most common in people with human immunodeficiency virus HIV or other forms of immune compromise
Patients with HIV-associated KS have worse survival than HIV-infected patients without KS
KS can occur alone or with other KSHV-associated disorders such as multicentric Castleman disease MCD primary effusion lymphoma PEL or KSHV-associated inflammatory cytokine syndrome KICS
The natural history of KS is incompletely understood as it occurs in different epidemiologic subtypes including those with HIV particularly among individuals with well-controlled HIV and robust CD4 T cell counts and those who are HIV-negative
The longitudinal evaluations along with tissue sample collection imaging studies and participant reported outcomes will allow for the development of a better understanding of the natural history of this disease and the development of the basis for more effective treatments

Objective

-To characterize the natural history of KS including presentation manifestation and proportion of participants with KS with remission and recurrence by epidemiologic subtype

Eligibility

Participants with histologically confirmed KS
Age 18 years
No active KICS or MCD

Design

This will be a long-term trial to comprehensively study participants with KS
Medical history including HIV characteristics research specimens such as KS tissue blood and saliva will be obtained through the course of KS management with specific attention to patterns related to disease recurrence and progression response to therapies and duration of response
Outcomes and factors that influence the onset and persistence of KS over the natural history of this condition will be explored in collaboration with other centers that treat participants with KS
We anticipate accruing 230 participants on this protocol
