Shenzhen, GuangzhouAges 1–65 - NCT04755205Recruiting
Natural history study of olfactory neuroblastoma
This study follows people with olfactory neuroblastoma over time to better understand how the disease behaves and changes. It may help future patients by improving doctors’ knowledge, even if it does not test a new treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–120 - NCT04901702RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Onivyde plus talazoparib or temozolomide for resistant solid tumors
This trial tests whether adding Onivyde to either talazoparib or temozolomide can shrink or control hard-to-treat (refractory or recurring) cancers in children and young adults. It aims to find safer dosing first, then look at how well the treatment works—especially for Ewing sarcoma.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT05027386RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Apatinib plus immunotherapy for tough childhood neuroblastoma
This trial studies whether apatinib, a targeted medicine, combined with an immunotherapy treatment can shrink or control neuroblastoma that has come back or does not respond to prior treatment. Because it is a Phase I/II single-group study, everyone receives the planned treatment and researchers watch side effects and response.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 5–18 - NCT05826158Recruiting
Scans compared for children with neuroblastoma
This trial compares two different nuclear medicine scans to see which one best shows where neuroblastoma is in a child’s body. The results may help doctors choose the most helpful scan for planning care.
