Design
Purpose of study
1/Major: -To determine the outcome, in particular the local control, event-free survival (80%) and overall survival, of children over the age of one year with Stage 2 and Stage 3 unresectable neuroblastoma without MYCN amplification. 2/Secondary : - To treat all children referred to members of the European cooperative groups in a uniform manner and collect the data centrally. -To collect and evaluate validated biological data on all cases in order to validate new prognostic markers.
Summary of study design, objectives, and ongoing research findings
The aim is to determine the outcome, in particular the local control, event-free survival and overall survival, of children over the age of one year with Stage 2 and Stage 3 unresectable neuroblastoma without MYCN amplification. The children initially receive 4 courses of chemotherapy, before surgery with possible additional chemotherapy. The protocol consists of 2 courses of chemotherapy including carboplatine-VP16 followed 3 weeks later by a cure of CADO (Oncovin, Endoxan and Adriamycine). The aim is to obtain a 3 year event free survival rate of 80% and a 3 year overall survival rate of 85%.
