Study For Patients With Non-High Risk Neuroblastoma

Description

Seeking male and female children ranging from 0-18 months of age diagnosed with non-high risk neuroblastoma.

Overview

Purpose of this study is to see if researchers can treat non-high-risk NBL by either not doing surgery or by changing the amount of chemotherapy given and still get very good results.

What we're hoping for

We hope that the non-high risk neuroblastoma cancer (NBL) may become smaller or go away without any treatment (surgery or chemotherapy) for this tumor of nerve cells typically found in the stomach, chest or neck of young children.
