NCT01701479

Brief Summary

The main aim of this clinical trial is to find a way of giving ch14.18/CHO, in combination with subcutaneous aldesleukin (IL-2) and oral isotretinoin (13-cis-RA), to children and young people with primary refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma without intravenous morphine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Event free survival

    The primary endpoint is event free survival calculated from the date of randomisation. The following will be considered as events: * disease progression or relapse * death from any cause * second neoplasm

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Pain-toxicity endpoint

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Efficacy endpoint

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Systemic immune modulation/response

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Assessment of absolute lymphocyte counts and absolute NK cell numbers after the respective cycles as a measurement of response to s.c. aldesleukin (IL-2) in the standard treatment arm.

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Determination of pharmacokinetics of ch14.18/CHO by assessing blood levels of ch14.18/CHO via ELISA (Enzyme-linked-Immunosorbent Assay)

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Experimental arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Subcutaneous aldesleukin (IL-2) will be given at a dose of 6 x 106 IU/m2/day in two 5 day blocks (days 1-5 and 8-12). A continuous infusion of ch14.18/CHO is started on day 8. The duration of the infusion is dependent on the assigned infusion schedule. The duration will range from 10 to 21 days. Three dose levels will be considered with respect to daily dose (7 mg/m2, 10 mg/m2, 15 mg/m2), which relates to total doses of 100 mg/m2,150 mg/m2 and 210 mg/m2. Patients will receive isotretinoin (13-cis-RA) 160 mg/m²/day divided into two equal doses given orally twice a day for 14 days after the completion of the ch14.18/CHO infusion. The starting day is dependent on the duration of ch14.18/CHO infusion and may be either day 19, 23, 24 or 30.
