  Purpose

This is a phase II window study of the combination of ZD1839 (gefitinib) and irinotecan in children with high-risk neuroblastoma followed by standard induction chemotherapy, intensification with autologous stem cell transplantation, and an oral maintenance phase with 13-cis-retinoic acid and topotecan. We hypothesize that the ZD1839 (gefitinib) and irinotecan window will be efficacious.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient is less than or equal to 18 years of age
  • Patient is newly diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma
  • Patient has adequate kidney and liver function
  • No prior therapy, unless an emergency situation requires local tumor treatment (discuss with PI)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known severe hypersensitivity to ZD1839 or any of the excipients of this product
  • Any evidence, as judged by the investigator, of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (e.g., unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease)
  • Evidence of any significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the trial.
  • Pregnant or breast feeding (women of child-bearing potential).
  • Concomitant use of phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, barbiturates, or St. John's Wort.
  • Treatment with a non-approved or investigational drug within 30 days before Day 1 of study treatment.
  • Any evidence of clinically active interstitial lung disease (patients with chronic stable radiographic changes who are asymptomatic need not be excluded).
  • Children with INSS 4 disease, age <12 months with all 3 favorable biologic features (non-amplified MYCN, favorable pathology and DNA index
