About this trial

This is a prospective, multicenter clinical trial in subjects with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma to evaluate the efficacy and safety of administering naxitamab with standard induction therapy. The initial chemotherapy will include 5 cycles of multi-agent chemotherapy. Naxitamab will be added to all 5 Induction cycles. We hypothesize that the addition of anti-GD2 therapy to induction chemotherapy will result in improved end of induction responses and improved survival.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

MYCN amplification (> 4-fold increase in MYCN signals as compared to reference signals), regardless of additional biologic features; OR

365 days to ≥ 547 days of age without MYCN amplification, but unfavorable biologic features such as unfavorable histology (INPC) or diploid tumor (DNA index=1) or the presence of any segmental chromosome aberration (SCA) (somatic copy number loss at 1p, 3p, 4p, or 11q or somatic copy number gain at 1q, 2p, or 17q); OR

Age > 547 days of age regardless of biologic features

MYCN amplification (> 4-fold increase in MYCN signals as compared to reference signals); OR

Disqualifiers

Subjects who are less than 1 year of age

Subjects who are 12-18 months of age with INRGSS Stage M and all stage L2 subjects with favorable biologic features (i.e., nonamplified MYCN, favorable pathology, and DNA index > 1) are not eligible.

Subjects who have had prior systemic therapy except for localized emergency radiation to sites of life-threatening or function-threatening disease and/or no more than 1 cycle of chemotherapy.

Treatment with immunosuppressive treatment (topical, inhaled and short-term emergency steroids excluded) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Naxitamab

    Drug

    Naxitamab is a humanized (IgG1) anti-GD2 (hu3F8) monoclonal antibody for the treatment of neuroblastoma, osteosarcoma and other GD2-positive cancers. Naxitamab was granted accelerated approval by the FDA in 2020 as treatment (in combination with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor - GM-CSF) for pediatric patients at least one year of age and adult patients with relapsed or refractory high-risk neuroblastoma in the bone or bone marrow demonstrating a partial response, minor response, or stable disease to prior therapy

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of participants with Complete Response (CR) rate per 1993 INRC guidelines

Measured by the presence of radiologically assessable disease by cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) or Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging and/or by metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) or positron emission tomography (PET) scans and bone marrow (BM) response for subjects with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma according to the 1993 International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (INRC) and compare to relevant historical controls.

Time frame
6 to 12 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Number of participants with CR + Very Good Partial Response (VGPR) rate and objective response rate (ORR; CR + VGPR + PR)

Evaluate the combined CR + Very Good Partial Response (VGPR) rate and objective response rate (ORR; CR + VGPR + PR) at EOI per 1993 INRC, compared against historical controls and external controls. Measured by the presence of radiologically assessable disease by cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) or Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging and/or by metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) or positron emission tomography (PET) scans and bone marrow (BM) response for subjects with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma according to the 1993 International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (INRC).

Time frame
6 to 12 months
2

Number of participants with Complete Response (CR) rate per 2017 INRC guidelines

Evaluate CR rate and ORR (CR + PR) at EOI per the 2017 INRC, compared against external controls. Measured by the presence of radiologically assessable disease by cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) or Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging and/or by metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) or positron emission tomography (PET) scans and bone marrow (BM) response for subjects with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma according to the 2017 International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (INRC).

Time frame
6 to 12 months
3

Number of days that subjects remain alive

Overall survival (OS) for subjects receiving the combination of standard Induction chemotherapy with naxitamab.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 1 year, plus 8 years of follow up
4

Number of days that subjects remain in remission

Progression-free survival (PFS) for subjects receiving the combination of standard Induction chemotherapy with naxitamab.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 1 year, plus 8 years of follow up
