Study on Dinutuximab, GM-CSF, Isotretinoin with Irinotecan and Temozolomide for High-Risk Neuroblastoma After Intensive Therapy

Sponsor: Children's Oncology Group

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT04385277

This clinical trial is testing a combination of treatments, including immunotherapy and chemotherapy, to see if they can be safely given to patients with high-risk neuroblastoma after intensive therapy. The goal is to find out if this combination can better treat the cancer compared to standard treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring whether a combination of treatments, including dinutuximab (an immunotherapy), GM-CSF, isotretinoin, irinotecan, and temozolomide, can be safely administered to patients with high-risk neuroblastoma after they have completed intensive therapy. The aim is to see if this combination can improve treatment outcomes by targeting cancer cells more effectively without harming healthy cells. The study will also look at the safety of these treatments and how well they work in preventing the cancer from coming back or getting worse.

Description

The main goal of this study is to determine if a combination of dinutuximab, GM-CSF, and isotretinoin with irinotecan and temozolomide can be safely given to patients with high-risk neuroblastoma after they have completed intensive therapy, including stem cell transplants and radiation. Researchers will also look at the side effects of this treatment and how well it works in keeping the cancer from returning or worsening.

Patients will receive a series of treatments over several cycles, including oral and intravenous medications, and will undergo various scans and tests to monitor their health and the cancer's response to the treatment. The treatment cycles will repeat every 28 days for up to 5 cycles, with an additional cycle for isotretinoin if needed.

After completing the study treatment, patients will have follow-up visits at regular intervals to check on their health and monitor for any signs of cancer recurrence.
