High-Dose 3F8/GM-CSF Immunotherapy Plus 13-Cis-Retinoic Acid for Consolidation of First Remission After Myeloablative Therapy and Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation
- Conditions
- Neuroblastoma
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01183416
- Lead Sponsor
- Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to see if high-dose 3F8 combined with GM-CSF is better than standard dose 3F8 in treating neuroblastoma. Another purpose of the study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, 3F8 has on cancer. The investigators also want to see if the antibody works against a very small amount of neuroblastoma (minimal residual disease) that is left in the bone marrow.

- 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, MYCN-amplified stage 2 or stage 3 (any age), or MYCN-amplified stage 4S.
- The patients are post-stem cell transplantation and in first CR/VGPR, including no measurable MIBG-avid soft tissue tumor assessable for response.
- Signed informed consent indicating awareness of the investigational nature of this program.

Group Intervention Description 3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic Acid 3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic Acid This phase II, open-label, single arm trial assesses the anti-NB activity of high-dose 3F8 (80 mg/m2/day), which is used in cycles 1-2, with return to standard 3F8 dosage (20 mg/m2/day) in subsequent cycles. The patients are post-transplant and in 1st complete/very good partial remission (CR/VGPR),89 with no evidence of NB by standard studies, but are at high risk for relapse.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Assess the Impact of High-dose 3F8/GM-CSF on Relapse-free Survival 2 years in patients who are post-stem-cell transplantation and in first complete or very good partial remission, but at high risk of relapse.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 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.
Apply Real-time Quantitative RT-PCR to Test the Hypothesis That the Minimal Residual Disease Content of Bone Marrow 2 years after the first treatments with 3F8/GMCSF has significant prognostic impact on relapse-free survival.
