RAPID Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether the anti-GD2 human-mouse chimeric monoclonal antibody dinutuximab can be given to children with high-risk neuroblastoma over four hours or less, which would allow for administration of this immunotherapy agent in the outpatient setting.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children with high-risk neuroblastoma who have previously been treated with dinutuximab, either alone or with chemotherapy. They must not be breastfeeding or pregnant and agree to use contraception if of childbearing potential. Participants need normal organ function, no severe allergies to anti-GD2 antibodies, and cannot be on certain medications that affect the immune system.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a rapid infusion method of dinutuximab over four hours or less in children with high-risk neuroblastoma. The goal is to see if this faster delivery can reduce hospital stays and costs while maintaining safety and effectiveness compared to the standard longer infusion times.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to the antibody treatment, which could range from mild skin reactions to more serious issues affecting breathing or blood pressure. Other common side effects might involve fever, pain at the injection site, vomiting, diarrhea, low blood pressure, rash, and difficulty breathing.
