COMMENTS
a(n) is equal to (-1)^n times the sum of the products of each distinct grouping of 5 members of the set {1, 2, 3, ..., n + 4}. So, a(1) = (-1)*1*2*3*4*5 = -120, and a(2) = 1*2*3*4*5 + 1*2*3*4*6 + 1*2*3*5*6 + 1*2*4*5*6 + 1*3*4*5*6 + 2*3*4*5*6 = 1764. See comment at A001303. - Greg Dresden, Aug 26 2019

FORMULA
a(n) = (-1)^n*binomial(n+5, 6)*binomial(n+5, 2)*(3*n^2 + 23*n + 38)/8.
G.f.: -x*(120 - 444*x + 328*x^2 - 52*x^3 + x^4)/(1+x)^11. See row k=4 of triangle A112007 for the coefficients. [G.f. corrected by Georg Fischer, May 19 2019]
E.g.f. with offset 5: exp(x)*(Sum_{m=0..5} A112486(5, m)*(x^(5+m)/(5+m)!).
a(n) = (f(n+4, 5)/10!)*Sum_{m=0..min(5, n-1)} A112486(5, m)*f(10, 5-m)*f(n-1, m)), with the falling factorials f(n, m):=n*(n-1)*, ..., *(n-(m-1)). From the e.g.f.
