Neuroblastoma

Researchers are testing daraxonrasib, an experimental pill that blocks RAS proteins, in children with solid tumors that have come back or stopped responding to treatment. The tumors include neuroblastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma, and all carry RAS mutations. The trial has two parts: …

This study tests adding a new drug, iberdomide, to standard chemoimmunotherapy for children and young adults (ages 1-30) whose neuroblastoma has returned, not responded, or worsened after prior treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works better at controlli…

This clinical trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called 4SCAR-T, which uses a patient's own immune cells engineered to recognize and attack three different markers (GD2, PSMA, and CD276) on neuroblastoma cancer cells. The study enrolls children and adults (ages 1 to 65) with…

This phase 2 trial tests three different combinations of a radioactive drug (131I-MIBG) with other medicines (vorinostat and/or dinutuximab) in children and young adults with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. About 118 participants will be randomly assigned to one of three tr…

This pilot study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug called dinutuximab-beta to standard chemotherapy is safe and effective for people aged 1 to 30 with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma. Dinutuximab-beta is an antibody that latches onto neuroblastoma cells, helping …

This early-phase trial tests a new cell therapy called ThINKK in 12 children aged 2–12 who have had a stem cell transplant for leukemia or neuroblastoma. The therapy is designed to boost the body's natural killer (NK) cells to better fight cancer. The main goals are to check if t…

This study tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (liposomal irinotecan, vincristine, and temozolomide) with or without an additional drug (anlotinib) in children aged 3-18 whose solid tumors have returned or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination c…

This study compares a new type of PET/CT scan using 18F-MFBG to the current standard scan (123I-MIBG) in 30 children with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. The goal is to see if the new scan works as well or better for detecting tumors. If it does, it could offer a quicker an…

This study tests whether light therapy (photobiomodulation) can prevent mouth sores in children receiving chemotherapy. Fifty children aged 0-30 will receive daily light treatments during hospital stays and at home. Researchers will check if the therapy is easy to use and accepta…

This study looks back at medical records of 150 children who had surgery for neuroblastic tumors in the lower chest. Some had a special X-ray (arteriography) before surgery to map a key spinal artery, while others did not. Researchers want to see if the imaging helps prevent spin…
