Biomarkers of Renal Dysfunction in Neuroblastoma Survivors

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about biomarkers of kidney function in the blood and urine of neuroblastoma survivors. A biomarker is a biological molecule found in blood, urine, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease. A biomarker may be used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition.

Treatment and study plan

Urine sample

Other

The urine collected from the first morning void will be used to assess urine creatinine and microalbumin. The fresh urine specimen will be analyzed for novel urinary biomarkers of (urinary NGAL, TGF-β1, IL-18 and KIM-1). Serum BUN, creatinine, and cystatin-C will be assessed using serum samples drawn for routine clinical care.
