Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on seven pediatric patients with recurrent \/refractory or newly diagnosed stage 4 neuroblastoma treated with traditional reinduction\/induction chemotherapy combined with ATO. Results: A total of 7 patients were treated synchronously with ATO and chemotherapy for up to nine courses; all patients received conventional chemotherapy plus a 0.16\u2005mg\/kg\/day dose of intravenous ATO during reinduction\/induction chemotherapy. Treatment was effective in five patients and ineffective in the other two patients. The overall response rate was 71.43% (5 of 7). The side effects of the ATO combination were minor, whereby only treatment in one patient was terminated at the sixth course due to a prolonged QT interval (0.51\u2005s), which returned to normal after symptomatic treatment. Conclusions: ATO can be safely and effectively combined with chemotherapy drugs as a potential alternative means of treatment for high-risk stage 4 neuroblastoma, and we have observed that ATO can restore the sensitivity of chemotherapy in some patients who were resistant to previous chemotherapy. Further investigations and clinical data are required to confirm these observations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15330338211041454","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,27]],"date-time":"2021-09-27T12:11:48Z","timestamp":1632744708000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Improved
