New antibody cocktail takes aim at tough childhood cancers
NCT ID NCT04751383
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tested two lab-made antibodies, magrolimab and dinutuximab, together in 12 children and young adults whose neuroblastoma or osteosarcoma had returned or stopped responding to treatment. The main goal was to find a safe dose and watch for side effects. Researchers also checked whether the combination could shrink tumors or keep them stable.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Magrolimab and dinutuximab (monoclonal antibodies)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new combination treatment for children with hard-to-treat neuroblastoma or osteosarcoma.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small phase 1 trial with only 12 participants, focused on safety and dosing. It is not designed to prove effectiveness, and side effects may be significant.
