ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called naxitamab for children with high-risk neuroblastoma, which is a type of cancer that primarily affects young children. The trial is looking at how safe and effective naxitamab is when given alone or in combination with chemotherapy, and sometimes with an additional treatment to help the immune system fight the cancer. The research is being conducted at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center and is currently recruiting participants.
To be eligible for the trial, children must be at least one year old and have a confirmed diagnosis of high-risk neuroblastoma. Parents or guardians must provide written consent for their child to participate. However, certain factors may exclude a child from joining, such as having serious health issues, being pregnant or breastfeeding, or having received other investigational drugs recently. Participants will receive treatment and will be closely monitored for any side effects or changes in their condition. This trial aims to find better ways to help children with this challenging cancer.
