AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion criteria
. Patients must be ≥ 1 years of age
. Patients must demonstrate expression of at least one of the following HLA alleles by HLA genotyping (conducted at CHOP) to be eligible:
. Disease Status A. Patients must have high-risk neuroblastoma according to COG risk classification at the time of study enrollment. Patients who were initially considered low- or intermediate-risk, but then reclassified as high-risk are also eligible.
. Patients with recurrent/progressive or refractory disease:
. Patients with persistent disease:
. 3 or more MIBG avid sites (including soft tissue and/or bone).
. 1 or 2 MIBG avid sites (including soft tissue and/or bone) with biopsy confirmation of neuroblastoma and/or ganglioneuroblastoma in at least one MIBG avid site present at the time of enrollment.
. 3 or more MIBG avid sites (including soft tissue and/or bone).
Exclusion criteria
. Patients with active hepatitis B or active hepatitis C.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose of PHOX2B PC-CAR T Cells
Timeframe: 5 years
2
Frequency of Adverse Events Following PHOX2B PC-CAR T cell administration
. Patients with active HIV infection (patients undergoing anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable HIV viral load are eligible).
. Patients with uncontrolled active infection.
. Patients with primary or acquired immunodeficiency disorder.
. Concurrent use of systemic steroids or immunosuppression at the time of cell infusion or cell collection, or a condition, in the treating physician's opinion, that is likely to require steroid therapy or immunosuppression during collection or after infusion. Steroids for disease treatment at times other than cell collection or at the time of infusion are permitted. Use of physiologic replacement hydrocortisone or inhaled steroids is permitted as well.
. Patients with actively progressing CNS metastases, including parenchymal or leptomeningeal involvement. (Note: CNS imaging at screening is only required if there is a clinical indication of suspected CNS metastasis)
. Active medical disorder that, in the opinion of the investigator, would substantially increase the risk of uncontrollable CRS and/or neurotoxicity.
. Patients who have received any live vaccines within 30 days prior to enrollment.
