NANT Trials

Home / NANT Trials / NANT Trials List

NANT provides children with relapsed and refractory high-risk neuroblastoma the opportunity to receive new investigational treatments when they have not responded to frontline therapy via NANT Phase 1-2 clinical trials. All NANT trials are based on laboratory data that show activity of the new treatment specifically against neuroblastoma. Our approach includes therapies that directly target the tumor cells, the normal surrounding cells that support tumor growth; and therapies that enhance the function of the patient’s immune system against tumor cells.

Patients are required to receive therapy on NANT trials at a NANT member site. NANT sites have a broad geographic distribution to help patients and families access our trials.
