GM-CSF, MAB 3F8, RETINOIC ACID (CIS-9 & 13), 09-160
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, the combination of 3F8 and GM-CSF has on the patient and the cancer.
Interventions
3F8 (80 mg/m2/day), which is used in cycles 1-2, with return to standard 3F8 dosage (20 mg/m2/day) in subsequent cycles .Clinical results will be compared to those in the predecessor trials which used only the standard 3F8 dosage. Starting with A(6), patients no longer receive high-dose 3F8 but receive only standard dose 3F8 (20 mg/m2/day) for all cycles. The patients are in \> or = to 2nd CR/VGPR and at high risk for additional relapse. Real-time quantitative RT-PCR63-65 will be used to assess MRD in BM. 13-cis-retinoic acid is started after cycle 2.
