The five-year-old from Blackhall has been given a specialist scan which shows up abnormal cells following the specialist antibody treatment with the hope it would give him more time.

But it has shown a new tumour at the bottom of his back, although some of the tumours caused by the return of his cancer have been reduced.

His mum Gemma, posting on the Bradley Lowery's Fight Against Neuroblastoma Facebook page last night said: “Unfortunately the results are not what we wanted to hear.

'¨“Bradley's scans show that there has been a small reduction in some parts however there is a new tumour on the bottom of his back.

“As you can imagine we are devastated and heart broken with this news as I really wanted the new treatment to work

'¨“We are not sure where we go from here as it will depend on his bone marrow biopsy results.'¨

“Results won’t be back for another week.”
