2021 Pediatric Grand Rounds | Trials and Tribulations: Path Forward in Relapsed/Refractory Neuroblastoma Therapy

Duarte, CA US
June 10, 2021

Neuroblastoma is one of the most common types of pediatric solid tumors and yet targeted immunotherapy of this disease is very limited. Pediatric oncologists need to stay abreast on advances in neuroblastoma management in order to apply the current state of the field to pediatric malignancies where appropriate.  It is therefore, imperative that they hear from a leading expert in the field, to understand how the results of molecular evaluations alter management. Genomic advances have altered the landscape of neuroblastoma management.  As more data is acquired, risk stratification and therapy continues to evolve.

Target Audience

City of Hope Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Physicians, Advance Practice Practitioners, City of Hope staff and research teams.

Learning Objectives

  • Integrate advances in neuroblastoma management into current practices.
  • Discuss applicability of these advances to management of other pediatric malignancies.
  • Identify risk stratification by molecular evaluations in pediatric neuroblastoma.
