Slowing down immunotherapy infusion may reduce pain in children with Tough-to-Treat neuroblastoma
NCT ID NCT07027748
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 1 trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy naxitamab more slowly, alongside standard chemotherapies irinotecan and temozolomide plus sargramostim, can reduce side effects in children with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. The study enrolls about 18 patients whose high-risk neuroblastoma has returned or not responded to prior treatment. The main goal is to find a safe infusion duration for naxitamab that causes fewer severe reactions, especially pain.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a combination of naxitamab (an immunotherapy), irinotecan, temozolomide, and sargramostim
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a better-tolerated treatment option for children with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase feasibility study, so the approach may not prove effective or safer in larger trials.
