PBRT14096 / ANBL1232 / Andolina

Research Question:
Can observation instead of therapy reduce the burden of therapy in low-risk brain cancer patients without affecting survival?

Basic Study Information

Purpose:
This phase III trial studies how well response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy works in treating younger patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma. Sometimes a tumor may not need treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. Measuring biomarkers in tumor cells may help plan when effective treatment is necessary and what the best treatment is. Response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy may be effective in treating patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma and may help to avoid some of the risks and side effects related to standard treatment.
