High Dose Chemotherapy and Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Rescue for Neuroblastoma: Standard of Care Considerations
This therapy involves the use of melphalan, etoposide, and carboplatin (consolidation
chemotherapy); autologous stem cell rescue, post-transplant radiation therapy and a
maintenance phase with Isotretinoin (Accutane, 13-cis-retinoic acid) therapy. If available,
patients should also consider post-transplant therapy with cytokines and monoclonal antibody
(ch14.18) on a COG or New Approaches to Neuroblastoma Therapy (NANT) trial.
