ANBL0532
Phase III Randomized Trial of Single vs. Tandem Myeloablative Consolidation Therapy for High-Risk Neuroblastoma
Phase 3N = 355NCT00567567
- Population
- Patients aged 30 years or younger with protocol-defined high-risk neuroblastoma: 652 eligible patients enrolled, 355 randomised.
- Design
- Randomised comparison (Children's Oncology Group, 142 centres, enrolment November 2007 to February 2012) of tandem versus single autologous stem-cell transplant after induction; designed to test one-sided superiority of tandem transplant for event-free survival.
- Primary endpoint
- EFS
- Arms
- Single transplant (control, n = 179): Single autologous transplant with carboplatin, etoposide and melphalan
- Tandem transplant (experimental, n = 176): Tandem transplant: thiotepa and cyclophosphamide followed by dose-reduced carboplatin, etoposide and melphalan

The abstract gives 5.6 years (range 0.6 to 8.9) as the median duration of follow-up after randomisation for the 181 patients without an event. |
