Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This study is a prospective, single-arm, open-lable, multi-center clinical trial. Children≤ 14 years old are eligible for this study if they were newly diagnosed with neuroblastoma and assessed as stage 4 according to the International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) or stage M according to the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group (INRG) respectively. Patients enrolled in this study will receive combined induction chemotherapy with arsenic trioxide following an modifed protocol based on N7 and NB2004 protocols. Objective response rate (ORR) at 4 weeks after completing induction chemotherapy was defined as the main outcome and adverse events were monitored and graded in the meantime.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: ATO-combined chemotherapy

Patients receive combined induction chemotherapy with arsenic trioxide.

Interventions

Drug: - Arsenic Trioxide

Arsenic trioxide(ATO) is administered 0.16mg/kg per day over eight hours IV daily for ten days. Patients will receive ATO alone on days 1-2 and combined with conventional induction chemotherapy on days 3-10. Nine cycles at most of ATO-combined chemotherapy were applied in the whole scheme.
