    Drug: Oxaliplatin

Interventions

  • DrugOxaliplatin

    Oxaliplatin will be administered in a 130 mg/m² dose, 2 hour IV infusion, once every 3 weeks. Each cycle will last 3 weeks, or 21 days. Drug will be administered till progression disease or untolerable adverse event. NOTE: patients with ≤ 12 months old will receive a 4,3 mg/kg dese (based on a 30 kg/m² conversion; i.e: in a 130 mg/m² dose, divided by 30).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Determine pediatric neoplastic response to proposed chemotherapy. Evaluate sensitivity to oxaliplatin through immunohistochemistry ERCC-1 expression analysis.

    Time frame: Up 2 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Define cumulative toxicity after oxaliplatin multiple cycles in this population. Evaluate relation between time exposure to the drug (number of cycles) and response (antitumor effect x response).

    Determine response time and overall survival in these patients.

    Time frame: Up 2 years
