Summary
This trial is testing a bivalent vaccine that has two antigens, GD2L and GD3L. The goal is to see if the patient's immune system can make antibodies against the two antigens, which would then attach to neuroblastoma cells and kill them.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for high-risk neuroblastoma patients who've had previous immunotherapy, are in first or subsequent remission, and have normal organ function tests. They must be able to follow the study plan and not have allergies to vaccine components like KLH or OPT-821.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a bivalent vaccine with two antigens linked to KLH protein, combined with an adjuvant (OPT-821) and oral β-glucan. The goal is to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies that target neuroblastoma cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, flu-like symptoms such as fever and chills, fatigue, allergic responses, and potentially low blood counts which could increase infection risk.

Trial Design
3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: vaccine group twoExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients will receive a total of 7 subcutaneous injections, at weeks 1, 2, 3, 8 , 20 , 32 , and 52. Minor schedule adjus tment s are permitted , as needed Vaccines must occur a minimum of 6 days apart. The last three vaccine s can be administered up to one week earlier or later than indicated without representing a protocol violation.Patients assigned to Group 2 will receive oral β glucan (40 mg/kg/day) starting week 1 and continue with approximately 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, up to 1 cycle after the last vaccination .
Group II: vaccine group threeExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients will receive a total of 7 subcutaneous injections, at weeks 1, 2, 3, 8 , 20 , 32 , and 52. Minor schedule adjus tment s are permitted , as needed Vaccines must occur a minimum of 6 days apart. The last three vaccine s can be administered up to one week earlier or later than indicated without representing a protocol violation.Group 3 will include patients who have previously received vaccine and oral β glucanglucan. Patients in this group will not be randomized using the MSK CRDB system. They will be treated as patients in Group 1 and receive o ral β glucan (40 mg/kg/day) starting at week 6 or 7 and continue with approximately 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, up to 1 cycle after the last vaccination . They will not be eligible for primary endpoint.
Group III: vaccine group oneExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients will receive a total of 7 subcutaneous injections, at weeks 1, 2, 3, 8 , 20 , 32 , and 52. Minor schedule adjus tment s are permitted , as needed Vaccines must occur a inimum of 6 days apart. The last three vaccine s can be administered up to one week earlier or later than indicated without representing a protocol violation.Patients assigned to in Group 1 will receive o ral β glucan (40 mg/kg/day) starting at week 6 or 7 and continue with approximately 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, up to 1 cycle after the last vaccination .
