Layman’s summary

Dr. Sholler’s trial combines a first-in-children, investigational oral immunotherapy drug with chemotherapy to treat relapsed or progressive neuroblastoma. The Phase I trial treated 15 patients and CKc’s funding helped move the trial to Phase 2 as well as make it accessible to patients at 5 additional sites across the country, including CKc’s hometown of Orlando, Florida.
