- Diagnosis of NB as defined by a) histopathology (confirmed by the MSKCC Department of Pathology), or b) BM metastases or MIBG-avid lesion(s) plus high urine catecholamine levels.
- High-risk NB as defined by risk-related treatment guidelines1 and the International NB Staging System,89 i.e., stage 4 with (any age) or without (> or = to 18 months of age) MYCN amplification or MYCN-amplified stage 4S.
- Patients have primary refractory disease limited to BM, i.e., high-risk NB (defined above) resistant to standard therapy, as evidenced by incomplete response in BM, but no measurable MIBG-avid soft tissue tumor assessable for response and no progressive disease.
- Signed informed consent indicating awareness of the investigational nature of this program.

Group Intervention Description 3F8/GM-CSF Immunotherapy Plus 13-Cis-Retinoic 3F8/GM-CSF Immunotherapy Plus 13-Cis-Retinoic This phase II study of the anti-GD2 murine IgG3 monoclonal antibody 3F8 combined with granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) will assess response in of primary refractory neuroblastoma in bone marrow (i.e., incomplete response to standard treatment).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Assess the Activity of High-dose 3F8/GM-CSF 2 years against persistent neuroblastoma in bone marrow of patients who have no other evidence of disease by standard studies.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Apply Real-time Quantitative RT-PCR 2 years to test the hypothesis that the minimal residual disease content of bone marrow after the first treatments with 3F8/GMCSF has significant prognostic impact on progression-free survival.
Monitor Safety of the High-dose Antibody Treatment 2 years to assure no side-effects or noxious sequelae develop or emerge that were not seen in the prior phase I study.
