A Feasibility Trial Using Molecular-Guided Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Refractory or Recurrent Neuroblastoma
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Guided Therapy for Neuroblastoma. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 7 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility (ability to be done) of an experimental test to help plan your cancer treatment. This study plan is not studying the effectiveness of the proposed combinations of therapy for your cancer that you may receive after the experimental testing. This study will look at an experimental technology to determine a tumor's molecular makeup (gene expression profile). This technology (called "OncInsights") is being used to discover new ways to understand cancers and potentially predict the best treatments for patients with cancer in the future. The experimental technology has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
A total of 14 eligible neuroblastoma patients who are refractory or relapsed on conventional therapy will be treated. Guided therapy will allow the use of any therapeutic combination (up to 4 agents) provided it includes medications contained in the study report. All patients will be followed for disease response, progression and safety. All patients will be treated according to the discretion of the treating oncologist and study committee (minimum 3 oncologists and one pharmacist). Extent of disease will be measured and assessed for changes throughout the course of the study and at 6-8 week intervals (every 2 cycles).
