About this study

Official title: High-Dose 3F8/GM-CSF Immunotherapy Plus 13-Cis-Retinoic Acid for Consolidation of First Remission After Myeloablative Therapy and Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation in Patients With High-Risk Neuroblastoma: A Phase II Study

The purpose of this study is to see if high-dose 3F8 combined with GM-CSF is better than standard dose 3F8 in treating neuroblastoma. Another purpose of the study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, 3F8 has on cancer. The investigators also want to see if the antibody works against a very small amount of neuroblastoma (minimal residual disease) that is left in the bone marrow.

Being tested
3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic Acid

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic AcidDrug

    A cycle consists of treatment with 3F8 for 5 days. GMCSF is started 5 days in advance of each 3F8 cycle. The break between end of a cycle of 3F8/GM-CSF and start of next cycle is 2-to-4-weeks through 4 cycles; subsequent breaks are ~6-8 weeks. 13-cis-retinoic acid is started after cycle 2.

Study groups in NCT01183416
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic AcidExperimentalThis phase II, open-label, single arm trial assesses the anti-NB activity of high-dose 3F8 (80 mg/m2/day), which is used in cycles 1-2, with return to standard 3F8 dosage (20 mg/m2/day) in subsequent cycles. The patients are post-transplant and in 1st complete/very good partial remission (CR/VGPR),89 with no evidence of NB by standard studies, but are at high risk for relapse.
Receives: Drug: 3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic Acid

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assess the Impact of High-dose 3F8/GM-CSF on Relapse-free Survival

    in patients who are post-stem-cell transplantation and in first complete or very good partial remission, but at high risk of relapse.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Apply Real-time Quantitative RT-PCR to Test the Hypothesis That the Minimal Residual Disease Content of Bone Marrow

    after the first treatments with 3F8/GMCSF has significant prognostic impact on relapse-free survival.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Monitor Safety of the High-dose Antibody Treatment

    to assure no side-effects or noxious sequelae develop or emerge that were not seen in the prior phase I study.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 3F8 monoclonal antibody and 13-cis-Retinoic Acid in people with Neuroblastoma, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess the Impact of High-dose 3F8/GM-CSF on Relapse-free Survival (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01183416, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Oct 2019.
