About this study

The purpose of this study is to find out how an antibody called Hu3F8 travels through the body and to tumors. Antibodies, like Hu3F8, are proteins that help attack tumors or fight infections. Antibodies can be made by your own body or in a laboratory. The target of an antibody is called an antigen; antibodies fit their antigen like a lock fits a key.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PET Imaging using 124I-Humanized 3F8Experimental124I-hu3F8 at a dose of 3mCi/m2 (with a maximum dose of 5mCi) will be injected IV. 124I-hu3F8 PET/CT scans will be performed at approximately 2-4 hours, 18-26hours, 48-72 hours and 96-144 hours after injection of 124I-hu3F8. A low dose CT scan will be obtained with each PET scans. PET/CT scan images will be analyzed to determine biodistribution of 124I-hu3F8 and to determine dosimetry to organs and sites of disease. Comparison of tumor targeting and tumor dosimetry will be made between the two cohorts of patients: (a) NB and (b) other solid tumors. Blood will be drawn where feasible at multiple time points: approximately 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 2h, 4-8h, 24h, 48h, 96h and 120h-144h after injection of 124I-hu3F8 and radioactivity measured to determine pharmacokinetics of 124I-hu3F8.
Receives: Biological: 124I-Humanized 3F8

What is being measured

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

  1. radioactivity measured to determine pharmacokinetics of 124I-hu3F8

    Following 124I-hu3F8 administration, upon completion of normal saline flush, blood will be drawn for pharmacokinetic studies at the following time points: 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 2h, 4-8h, 24h, 48h, 96h and 120-144 h.after injection of 124I-hu3F8 and radioactivity measured to determine pharmacokinetics of 124I-hu3F8.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. PET/CT scan images will be analyzed to determine bio distribution of 124I-hu3F8

    124I-hu3F8 will be injected IV followed by PET/CT scans at serial timepoints PET/CT scan images will be analyzed to determine biodistribution of 124I-hu3F8

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 124I-Humanized 3F8 in people with Melanoma and 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 25 inclusion and 8 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

radioactivity measured to determine pharmacokinetics of 124I-hu3F8 (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Dec 2025.
