Summary

This trial is testing whether adding the drug Hu3F8 to standard chemotherapy drugs irinotecan and temozolomide can help treat cancer with fewer side effects.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and adults with high-risk neuroblastoma, a type of cancer. Participants must have specific stages of the disease, measurable or evaluable disease after prior therapy, and cannot be in complete remission. They can't join if they have severe organ damage, low blood counts, allergies to mouse proteins, active infections or are pregnant/breastfeeding.
What is being tested?
The study tests an experimental drug called Hu3F8 combined with chemotherapy drugs irinotecan and temozolomide plus GM-CSF to see if this mix is safe and effective against neuroblastoma.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to immune response from Hu3F8, digestive issues from irinotecan and temozolomide, bone marrow suppression leading to lower blood cell counts, as well as general fatigue.
