Summary

"This trial is testing a new drug called tipifarnib, taken as a pill, along with an FDA-approved drug called naxitimab, given through a tube into a vein. N

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with neuroblastoma that has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Participants must have had some response or stable disease after previous therapy and be suitable for taking tipifarnib orally and receiving naxitamab intravenously.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of combining tipifarnib, a pill, with naxitamab, an IV drug approved by the FDA for certain cases of neuroblastoma. The goal is to see how well patients respond to this combination and how long they live without their cancer worsening.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the infusion process, issues from the drugs affecting organs, fatigue, nausea, blood-related problems, and increased risk of infections. Each patient's experience may vary.
