About

Children and adults diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma patients with primary refractory disease or incomplete response to salvage treatment in bone and/or bone marrow will be treated for up to 101 weeks with naxitamab and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Patients will be followed for up to five years after first dose.

Naxitamab, also known as hu3F8 is a humanised monoclonal antibody targeting GD2

Full description

Each patient will receive treatment for up to 101 weeks following the first Naxitamab administration. After the end of trial visit, each patient will enter a long-term follow-up where they will be monitored for up to 5 years after first treatment cycle.

Each investigational cycle is started with 5 days, days -4 to 0, of Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) administered at 250 µg/m2/day in advance of the start of Naxitamab administration. GM-CSF is thereafter administered at 500 µg/m2/day on days 1 to 5. As standard treatment, Naxitamab is administered at 3 mg/kg/day on days 1, 3, and 5, totalling 9 mg/kg per cycle.

Treatment cycles are repeated every 4 weeks (±1 week) until complete response or partial response followed by 5 additional cycles every 4 weeks (±1 week). Subsequent cycles are repeated every 8 weeks (±2 weeks) through 101 weeks from first infusion at the discretion of the investigator. End of treatment will take place around 8 weeks after the last cycle and thereafter long-term follow-up will continue.

Experimental group

Description:

Each investigational cycle is started with 5 days of GM-CSF administered at 250 µg/m2/day in advance of the start of Naxitamab administration. GM-CSF is thereafter administered at 500 µg/m2/day on days 1 to 5. As standard treatment, Naxitamab is administered at 3 mg/kg/day on days 1, 3, and 5 totalling 9 mg/kg per cycle. Treatment cycles are repeated every 4 weeks until CR or PR followed by 5 additional cycles every 4 weeks (±1 week). Subsequent cycles are repeated every 8 weeks (±2 weeks) through 101 weeks from first infusion at the discretion of the investigator. After end of treatment patients will enter a long-term follow up for up to 3 years after end of treatment visit.
