Naxitamab with novel scheduling and stepped-up dosing of GM-CSF plus vaccine, but no myeloablative therapy for patients with high-risk neuroblastoma in first complete remission. (PubMed, Int J Cancer)
EFS/OS rates at 24 months were 88%/95% and at 36 months were 80%/95%. Naxitamab + nGM-CSF is a good option to consolidate first CR of HR-NB patients, including those who did not undergo MAT.

Ganglioside therapy in cancer molecular insights and therapeutic opportunities. (PubMed, Discov Oncol)
Dinutuximab, approved for high-risk neuroblastoma, improved event-free survival when combined with cytokines with standard therapy alone (NCT00026312). Similarly, Naxitamab, in combination with GM-CSF, achieved an overall response rate in relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma (NCT03363373)...Additionally, Racotumomab (anti-NeuGcGM3) demonstrated a survival benefit in advanced non-small cell lung cancer, extending median overall survival compared to placebo (NCT01240447). Despite these advances, challenges remain in improving patient selection, reducing off-target toxicities such as neuropathic pain, and addressing resistance mechanisms. This review examines the latest developments in ganglioside-mediated cancer therapy, emphasizing current clinical outcomes, highlighting the need for more precise targeting approaches, and exploring rational combination strategies to enhance therapeutic efficacy.

A pharmacological and clinical profile of Naxitamab for the treatment of high-risk neuroblastoma. (PubMed, Expert Rev Clin Pharmacol)
Ongoing clinical studies and expanded global use continue to evaluate its safety and efficacy, to optimize its integration with standard care, and to fully exploit its therapeutic potential. Advances in protein engineering can further extend the utility of anti-GD2 mAbs, enabling the creation of radioimmunoconjugates, novel bispecific antibodies, and pre-targeting strategies, offering potent tumor selectivity while mitigating off-target toxicity.

Ganglioside Profiling Uncovers Distinct Patterns in High-Risk Neuroblastoma. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Profile C was found only in cell lines of the mesenchymal subtype. These findings support further investigation of GG composition and associated enzyme expression as potential biomarkers for risk stratification and treatment response in NBL.
