Upfront Treatment of Pediatric High-Risk Neuroblastoma With Chemotherapy, Surgery, and Radiotherapy Combination: The CCCG-NB-2014 Protocol

PurposeThe Chinese Children’s Cancer Group developed the CCCG-NB-2014 study to formulate optimal treatment strategies for high-risk (HR) neuroblastoma (NB). The safety and efficacy of this protocol were evaluated.MethodPatients with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma and defined as HR according to the Ch...

The safety and efficacy of this protocol were evaluated.MethodPatients with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma and defined as HR according to the Children’s Oncology Group study were included. They were treated with a combination of chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy. The treatment-related toxicities, response rate, 3-year progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed.ResultsOf 159 patients enrolled between 2014 and 2018, 80 were eligible, including 19 girls and 61 boys, with a median age of 3.9 years (range 0.9–11). After a median follow-up of 24 months (range 3–40), the median OS was 31.8 months, and 3-year OS was 83.8%. In multivariate analyses, the OS was affected by N-MYC amplification (hazard ratio 0.212, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.049–0.910; p = 0.037) and giant tumor mass (hazard ratio 0.197, 95% CI 0.071–0.552; p = 0.002). The median 3-year PFS was 25.8 months, and 3-year PFS was 57.5%. The univariate analysis showed that only the giant tumor mass was associated with the outcome.
