Summary: | Introduction
Neuroblastoma commonly required multimodal therapy containing surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy.
Case report
In our case, who had refractory metastatic neuroblastoma, we use histone deacetylase inhibitor (panobinostat) in combination with chemotherapy agents and iodine-131-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) therapy.
Management and outcome
This approach leads to successfully treat the patient. MIBG scan and bone marrow examination after therapy revealed no evidence of tumor. Now, she underwent autologous transplantation six months ago and free of tumor.
Conclusion
Panobinostat can cause apoptosis induction in refractory metastatic neuroblastoma in combination with MIBG therapy and chemotherapy. |
