Case 1
• Infant girl born at term to 30 year old G3P23 mother after unremarkable pregnancy
• Baby with significant distress in the delivery room, large rock hard neck mass causing tracheal deviation/obstruction
Case 1
• Tissue diagnosis obtained: neuroblastoma
• Metastatic workup negative, histology favorable, MYCN non-amplified, no Segmental Chromosomal Aberrations, DNA Index >1
• Treated with moderate intensity chemotherapy x 4 cycles
• Rapid response
• Residual mass debulked - <50% volume remained
Case 2
• Infant boy born at term via NSVD to 27 year old G1P01 mother after an unremarkable pregnancy, labor and delivery
• Prenatal ultrasound had shown a mass that appeared to arise from the left kidney
Case 2
• Clinically well baby
• Discharged home following full imaging and laboratory evaluation
• Never required surgery or medical therapy
• Now completely well
Case 3
• 30 day old girl born at term following unremarkable pregnancy, labor, delivery
• Went home with mom, no problems in first 2 weeks of life but parents subsequently noticed abdominal fullness
• Ultrasound – hepatomegaly + right adrenal mass
• Referred to local hospital – CT confirmed same
• Transferred for further work up and treatment
Case 3
• On exam HR 110, RR 78
• Emaciated, cranky, pale infant
• No distress but abdomen tense, distended with prominent veins at surface, massive hepatomegaly; abdominal girth 49 cm
• Tissue obtained for histology, biology from limited liver biopsy
• CVL placed, marrows done (<10% tumor)
Case 3
• Required increased vent support post-op, +electrolyte abnormalities
• Started on etoposide/carboplatin
• Increasing abdominal distension, increased vent support, decreased urine output, coagulopathy
• Emergent XRT initiated
• Unstable the following day, extensive resuscitation efforts unsuccessful, pt expired
Neuroblastoma in Infants
• All of these patients had neuroblastoma diagnosed within the first months of life
• Median age of dx of NBL is ~2 years, but it is by far the most common malignancy in neonates
• ~25% of cases of cancer in neonates are NBL
London, JCO, 2005
n-=3666
Clinical Presentation
• >70% adrenal, but may occur anywhere along the sympathetic chain
• Symptoms in neuroblastoma are like real estate . . .. .location, location, location
• Urinary catecholamines elevated in >80%
• Hypertension not very common
• Skin lesions– not common but helpful
Risk Stratification
• Key prognostic factors:• Age
• Shown to be a continuous variable but practical considerations require a cut-off for designation of favorable vs unfavorable
• Convention is 18 months (547 days)
• Stage• Out: INSS (surgical staging system)
• In: INRG (imaging based staging system)
INRG Staging
Cohn et al, JCO, 2009
Key concept: Stage is likely a proxy for biological factors that we have not yet identified
Histology
• Guiding principle of oncology: Where there is an issue, you need to get tissue • Almost always true
• Histology is a prognostic factor in NBL
• INPC: degree of differentiation, mitosis-karyorrhexis index, stromal content, age
• Hold this thought: MS infants are a special case
Biologic Features and Risk Stratification
MYCN amplification
Particularly important in patients with localized disease, infants with metastatic disease

infertility• Hypothyroidism• Pulmonary fibrosis• Dental issues• Cardiac insufficiency• Diabetes/metabolic syndrome• Second malignancies
High Risk Therapy and Infants
Resect/Biopsy All Just In Case?
• Resection or biopsy NOT indicated in specific settings
• Small, localized tumors in infants will usually take care of themselves • Newborn screening changed incidence but not survival
• Expectant observation study (ANBL00P2)• 84 patients observed; only 16 went on to resection
• 11 NBL (9 Stage 1); 5 NOT NBL
• 81% of observed patients were spared resection
• 3 year EFS 98%, OS 100%
Nuchtern, Ann Surg, 2012
What About Infants withMetastatic Disease?
• ANBL0531 study for patients with intermediate risk neuroblastoma • 46 patients with MS NBL
• 28 <3 months of age
• 5 deaths due to complications of hepatomegaly
• Disproportionately high death rate in patients <3 months of age
Just Do It
• Current clinical practice: treat early and often
• Convincing presentation +/- urine catecholamines = sufficient evidence of NBL in a young infant with hepatomegaly
• Carboplatin and Etoposide are very effective
• Can be given via PIV
• Difficult to• Not biopsy• Not put in semi-permanent line• Not stage the patient
• Imperative to prevent an intervention-related demise
Treat First, Biopsy Later
• In most cases, patients stabilize within 1 day and begin to improve clinically within the next 2-3 days
• May only need one or two cycles of therapy to be safe to biopsy
• PHOX2B, ALK aberrations associated with hereditary predisposition, multifocal disease
• ALK mutation status and prognosis• Correlates with inferior outcome in pts with intermediate
risk but not low risk disease
• Difficult to interpret role as prognostic marker in high risk disease
• Role of ALK inhibitor unclear in patients who do well with limited or no therapy

• Neuroblastoma is the most common malignancy in neonates
• Presentation can vary dramatically• Some patients will experience spontaneous regression
• Unfavorable biology associated with poorer outcome
• Treatment is based on risk of recurrence• Incorporates age, stage, histology, biology
• Full evaluation is important when safe, but first do no harm
• Much to be learned about neuroblastoma in infants
