This study examines the drug Avutometinib in children with solid tumors that have MAP kinase pathway changes and in conditions such as neurofibromatosis. Patients aged 3-30 whose disease progressed after standard therapy or who have no suitable standard treatment took part. It is being conducted in Phase 1; it is active but not currently recruiting.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible to enroll in this study:
* Age ≥ 3 year and ≤ 30 years at the time of informed consent. \*Patients over 18 years of age will be treated at the adult RP2D. The accrual for patients \>18 and ≤ 30 years will be limited to no more than 5 patients overall and will not participate in the dose escalation.
* All patients and/or their parents or legally authorized representatives must sign a written informed consent. Assent, when appropriate, will be obtained according to institutional guidelines.
* Karnofsky ≥ 50% for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky ≥ 50 for patients ≤ 16 years of age.
* Participants must have one of the following:
1. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of a pediatric tumor including CNS tumors with activating MAP kinase pathway alterations including but not limited to BRAF/ARAF/CRAF fusions or mutations, KRAS/NRAS/HRAS alterations, PTPN11 or SOS1/2 mutations and/or loss of function alterations in NF1. This will be performed at the enrolling institution and central review is not required OR
2. Participants with a clinical or molecularly confirmed (germline alteration positive) diagnosis of NF1 with symptomatic inoperable plexiform neurofibromas and recurrent/progressive low-grade gliomas are eligible and may enroll without tissue/biopsy confirmation.
OR
3. Patients with recurrent optic pathway gliomas are eligible if they have clinical progression (defined as new or worsening neurologic symptoms including visual dysfunction, as defined below):
* Visual worsening, defined as worsening of visual acuity (VA) or visual fields (VF) documented within the past year (by examination or history); OR - Significant visual dysfunction (defined as VA worse than normal for age by 0.6 logMAR \[20/80, 6/24, or 2.5/10\] or more in one or both eyes).
OR d) Participants with a confirmed diagnosis of neurofibromatosis 2 schwannomatosis (NF2-SWN) based on revised consensus 2021 criteria \[61\] with a target NF2-related tumor (vestibular schwannoma, non-vestibular schwannoma, meningioma) with documented radiographic progression defined as either:
* ≥ 20% increase in volume of enhancing tumor
* ≥ 2mm increase in greatest linear dimension of enhancing tumor Participants with diagnosis of NF2-SWN may enroll without tissue/biopsy confirmation. Genetic variants are classified as benign (B), likely benign (LB), likely pathogenic (LP), pathogenic (P), or variant of uncertain clinical significance (VUS) according to the standards and guidelines developed by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the Association for Molecular Pathology, and the College of American Pathologists \[62\]. Only patients with pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in NF2 will be permitted to enroll \[61\].
Molecular testing requirements: Genetic alterations (SNVs or fusions) may be identified through local testing in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) laboratory in the US or equivalently accredited diagnostic lab outside the United States (US) (CLIA certified) by using molecular assays on any tumor samples (either at initial diagnosis or recurrence). Only the following test modalities are permitted:
* Tissue-based or liquid biopsy NGS or quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) or RNA based fusion detection (ARCHER or other similar platform).
The reports should be collected for any participants who have completed Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) at any point prior to or during study participation
* Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
* For subjects enrolled by a liquid biopsy test; blood samples will be required and should be sent prior to enrollment and used for retrospective confirmation in the Sponsor's designated central laboratory (MSKCC).
* Patients must meet the following disease status criteria:
* Solid tumor: Patients must have either measurable disease as measured by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (Version 1.1) or evaluable disease.
* Neuroblastoma subjects are permitted to have evaluable disease only (e.g., bone disease only, evaluable by MIBG or PET).
* Primary Brain Tumors: Patients with primary brain tumors are eligible and can either have measurable disease (defined as at least equal or greater than twice the slice thickness in two perpendicular diameters on MRI) OR evaluable disease (clear MRI evidence of disease that may not be measurable in two perpendicular diameters) OR diffuse leptomeningeal disease OR positive CSF cytology alone.
* NF2 related schwannoma or meningioma: At least one volumetrically measurable and ≥1 cc NF2-SWN related VS or meningioma (histological confirmation not required), designated as target tumor.
* Tumor is refractory or recurrent/progressive after standard therapy (at least one prior standard therapy appropriate for tumor type and stage of disease) unless available standard therapies are considered inadequate for the patient.
Exception: NF1 patients with symptomatic and inoperable plexiform neurofibromas that are radiographically progressive or causing significant cosmetic disfigurement or causing significant morbidity are eligible regardless of prior MEK inhibitor exposure. NF2 patients with VS, non VS and meningioma are eligible prior to recurrence since no standard upfront treatment options exist.
* Patients must have a body surface area (BSA) ≥ 0.8 m2
