Full Title
A Multicenter Phase 2/3 Trial of the Efficacy and Safety of Intracerebroventricular Radioimmunotherapy using 131I-omburtomab for Neuroblastoma Central Nervous System/Leptomeningeal Metastases.Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of 131I-omburtamab radioimmunotherapy in children and teens with neuroblastoma that has spread to the brain or spinal cord or the lining around the brain. Omburtamab is an antibody that attaches to neuroblastoma cells. It carries radioactive iodine (131I) directly to the cancer cells, killing them. The treatment is given by several injections into a tube that feeds into the spinal fluid surrounding the brain.
