ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Diagnostic mIBG (meta-iodobenzylguanidine) scans are an integral component of response assessment in children with high-risk neuroblastoma. The role of end-of-induction (EOI) Curie scores (CS) was previously described in patients undergoing a single course of high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (AHCT) as consolidation therapy.OBJECTIVE:
We now examine the prognostic significance of CS in patients randomized to tandem HDC and AHCT on the Children's Oncology Group (COG) trial ANBL0532. STUDYDESIGN:
A retrospective analysis of mIBG scans obtained from patients enrolled in COG ANBL0532 was performed. Evaluable patients had mIBG-avid, International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) stage 4 disease, did not progress during induction therapy, consented to consolidation randomization, and received either single or tandem HDC (n = 80). Optimal CS cut points maximized the outcome difference (≤CS vs. >CS cut-off) according to the Youden index.RESULTS:
For recipients of tandem HDC, the optimal cut point at diagnosis was CS = 12, with superior event-free survival (EFS) from study enrollment for patients with CS ≤ 12 (3-year EFS 74.2% ± 7.9%) versus CS > 12 (59.2% ± 7.1%) (p = .002). At EOI, the optimal cut point was CS = 0, with superior EOI EFS for patients with CS = 0 (72.9% ± 6.4%) versus CS > 0 (46.5% ± 9.1%) (p = .002).CONCLUSION:
In the setting of tandem transplantation for children with high-risk neuroblastoma, CS at diagnosis and EOI may identify a more favorable patient group. Patients treated with tandem HDC who exhibited a CS ≤ 12 at diagnosis or CS = 0 at EOI had superior EFS compared to those with CS above these cut points.Palabras clave
