Study Population

Children with high-risk neuroblastoma

You may qualify if:

  • According to the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group Classification, it has been histologically diagnosed as high-risk NB.
  • Under the age of 18.
  • The disease assessment status is PR (via CT or MRI) and the bone marrow smear is negative.
  • If the residual mass is MIBG negative or MIBG positive and lacks FDG-PET affinity, it is considered evidence that the mass does not represent active disease. Subjects with stable residual tumor mass visible on CT/MRI will be included in the study.
  • Qualified hematological parameters and organ function; Refer to the CI CTC 4.0 adverse reaction grading standard of grade 2 and below.
  • Eflornithine needs to be activated within 120 days after the completion of previous treatment.

You may not qualify if:

  • According to the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group Classification, it has been histologically diagnosed as non high risk NB.
  • Prior to enrollment, the disease assessment status was either progressive disease (PD) or relapse (via CT or MRI).
  • Positive bone marrow smear.
  • Hematological parameters and organ function are not qualified, according to the CI CTC 4.0 adverse reaction grading standard of grade 3 or above.
  • The guardian does not agree to participate.
