Eligibility:

All Genders

1-30 years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: CEP-701 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of CEP-701 in treating...

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: Primary * Determine the maximum tolerated dose of CEP-701 in pediatric patients with recurrent or refractory high-risk neuroblastoma. * Determine the dose-limiting toxicity of this drug ...
