The overall survival rate for patients with neuroblastoma has improved over the past two decades, but long-term survival for the subgroup of patients with high-risk disease remains low. In recent years, there has been interest in the potential clinical use of drugs able to induce differentiation of neuroblastoma cells. Since 9-cis-retinoic acid induces better and more sustained differentiation of neuroblastoma in vitro than other retinoic acid isomers, this may be a more appropriate retinoid for use in neuroblastoma therapy.
