Korábbi kezelés

• Patients who are currently receiving another investigational drug.
• Patients who are currently receiving other anticancer agents.
• Patients who previously received a solid organ transplant.

Más betegség

• Prior chemotherapy or tumor directed therapy expect for surgical resection of the hepatic malignancy (i.e. radiation therapy, biologic agents, local therapy (embolization, radiofrequency ablation, and laser)). Therefore, patients with a pre-disposition syndrome who have a prior malignancy are not eligible.
• Patients with uncontrolled infection.

• Performance Level Patients must have a performance status corresponding to ECOG scores 0, 1, or 2. Use Karnofsky for patients \>16 years of age and Lansky for patients ≤16 years of age.
• Diagnosis Patients must be newly diagnosed with histologically-proven primary pediatric HB
• Emergent Treatment for HB In emergency situation when a patient meets all other eligibility criteria and has had baseline required observations, but is too ill to undergo a biopsy safely, the patient may be enrolled without a biopsy.
• Prior Therapy Patients may have had surgical resection of the hepatic malignancy prior to enrollment. All other anti-cancer therapy for the current liver lesion is prohibited.
• Organ Function Requirements
• Adequate renal function defined as:
  • Creatinine clearance or radioisotope Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) ≥ 70 mL/min/1.73 m2
• Adequate liver function defined as:
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, and Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine transaminase (ALT) \< 10 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age.
• Adequate pulmonary function defined as:
  • Normal pulmonary function tests (including DLCO) if there is clinical indication for determination (e.g. dyspnea at rest, known requirement for supplemental oxygen)
