A Study of N9 Chemotherapy in Children With Neuroblastoma

NCT04947501

Description:

The purpose of the study is to find out whether N9 is a safe and effective treatment for children with neuroblastoma. N9 includes 3 different combinations of chemotherapy drugs that are given at different times - Cyclophosphamide, topotecan, and vincristine (CTV), Ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (ICE), Cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine (CDV).

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Diagnosis of NB as defined by histopathology (confirmed by the MSK Department of
             Pathology), BM metastases plus high urine catecholamine levels, or positivity in MIBG
             scan.

          -  HR-NB, defined as MYCN-amplified stage 2/3/4/4S at any age and MYCN-nonamplified stage
             4 in patients >18 months old.

          -  No more than one prior cycle of chemotherapy.

          -  Age >1 year to <13 years old.

          -  Organ function requirements:

        Adequate renal function defined as:

        Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70 mL/min/1.73 m^2 or A serum creatinine based
        on age/sex as follows:

        Age: 1 to < 2 years Maximum Serum Creatinine (mg/dL): Male, 0.6; Female, 0.6 Age: 2 to < 6
        years Maximum Serum Creatinine (mg/dL): Male, 0.8; Female, 0.8 Age: 6 to ≤ 10 years Maximum
        Serum Creatinine (mg/dL): Male, 1; Female, 1

        The threshold creatinine values in this Table were derived from the Schwartz formula for
        estimating GFR utilizing child length and stature data published by the Centers for Disease
        Control.

        Adequate liver function defined as:

        Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, and serum alanine
        aminotransferase (ALT) < 10 x ULN.

        Adequate cardiac function defined as:

        Shortening fraction of ≥ 27% by echocardiogram, or Ejection fraction of > 50% by
        echocardiogram or radionuclide angiogram.

          -  Signed informed consent indicating awareness of the investigational nature of this
             treatment.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Severe dysfunction of major organs, i.e., renal, cardiac, hepatic, neurologic,
             pulmonary, hematologic, or gastrointestinal toxicity ≥ grade 3.

          -  Inability to comply with protocol requirements.

          -  Pregnancy is not an issue because all patients will be pre-adolescents.
      
Maximum Eligible Age:13 Years
Minimum Eligible Age:1 Year
Eligible Gender:All
Healthy Volunteers:No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Assess safety of the N9 regimen in participants with HR-NB through toxicity assessment
Time Frame:16 weeks
Safety Issue:
Description:Adverse events will be graded using Common Toxicity Criteria Version 5.0 developed by the National Cancer Institute of the USA, events of all grades will be tabulated, for non-hematologic effects and hematologic effects on the patients in the safety set. The timing of cycles will also be described to assess any delay due to toxicity
