Abstract
PURPOSE Paediatric high-risk neuroblastoma has poor prognosis despite modern multimodality therapy. This phase I/II study aimed to determine the safety, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), and efficacy of high-dose 131I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (131I-mIBG) therapy combined with single high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in high-risk neuroblastoma in Japan. METHODS Patients received 666 MBq/kg of 131I-mIBG and single HDC and HSCT from autologous or allogeneic stem cell sources. The primary endpoint was DLT defined as adverse events associated with 131I-mIBG treatment posing a significant obstacle to subsequent HDC. The secondary endpoints were adverse events/reactions, haematopoietic stem cell engraftment and responses according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) and 123I-mIBG scintigraphy. Response was evaluated after engraftment. RESULTS We enrolled eight patients with high-risk neuroblastoma (six females; six newly diagnosed and two relapsed high-risk neuroblastoma; median age, 4 years; range, 1-10 years). Although all patients had adverse events/reactions after high-dose 131I-mIBG therapy, we found no DLT. Adverse events and reactions were observed in 100% and 25% patients during single HDC and 100% and 12.5% patients during HSCT, respectively. No Grade 4 complications except myelosuppression occurred during single HDC and HSCT. The response rate according to RECIST 1.1 was observed in 87.5% (7/8) in stable disease and 12.5% (1/8) were not evaluated. Scintigraphic response occurred in 62.5% (5/8) and 37.5% (3/8) patients in complete response and stable disease, respectively. CONCLUSION 131I-mIBG therapy with 666 MBq/kg followed by single HDC and autologous or allogeneic SCT is safe and efficacious in patients with high-risk neuroblastoma and has no DLT. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER jRCTs041180030. NAME OF REGISTRY Feasibility of high-dose iodine-131-meta-iodobenzylguanidine therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma preceding myeloablative chemotherapy and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (High-dose iodine-131-meta-iodobenzylguanidine therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma).

Iodine-131 metaiodobenzylguanidine therapy for neuroblastoma: reports so far and future perspective. ScientificWorldJournal 2015; 2015:189135. [PMID: 25874239 PMCID: PMC4385691 DOI: 10.1155/2015/189135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2014] [Accepted: 08/01/2014] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Neuroblastoma, which derives from neural crest, is the most common extracranial solid cancer in childhood. The tumors express the norepinephrine (NE) transporters on their cell membrane and take in metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) via a NE transporter. Since iodine-131 (I-131) MIBG therapy was firstly reported, many trails of MIBG therapy in patients with neuroblastoma were performed. Though monotherapy with a low dose of I-131 MIBG could achieve high-probability pain reduction, the objective response was poor. In contrast, more than 12 mCi/kg I-131 MIBG administrations with or without hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) obtain relatively good responses in patients with refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma. The combination therapy with I-131 MIBG and other modalities such as nonmyeloablative chemotherapy and myeloablative chemotherapy with HCT improved the therapeutic response in patients with refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma. In addition, I-131 MIBG therapy incorporated in the induction therapy was proved to be feasible in patients with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma. To expand more the use of MIBG therapy for neuroblastoma, further studies will be needed especially in the use at an earlier stage from diagnosis, in the use with other radionuclide formations of MIBG, and in combined use with other therapeutic agents.
