Study summary

This is an prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of naxitamab monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy or combined with chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitor in the treatment of pediatric high-risk and refractory/relapsed neuroblastoma in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center.

Read the detailed description

Patients with high risk neuroblastoma who obtain CR after chemotherapy combined with surgery, radiotherapy and/or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation received axitamab and GM-CSF. Patients with high-risk neuroblastoma treated by chemotherapy combined with surgery, radiotherapy and or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients with tumor residual or progression during treatment (refractory) received naxitamab and GM-CSF in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide or naxitamab and GM-CSF in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide and PD-1 antibody.
