Cancer - APEC1621A: NCI-COG Pediatric MATCH (Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice)- Phase 2 Subprotocol of LOXO-101 (Larotrectinib) in Patients with Tumors Harboring Actionable NTRK Fusions

Condition or Therapy:

Recurrent or refractory solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, histiocytoses and central nervous system (CNS) tumors harboring NTRK gene fusion proteins

Category:

What is the goal of this study?

The goal of this study is to answer the following question: what is the complete and partial response rate in pediatric patients who have advanced solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders with NTRK fusions. We will also estimate the remission rates with this treatment and look at how eligible children tolerate the protocol treatment.

Who can join the study?

This study may be a good fit for children and young adults who:

  • Are ≥12 months and ≤21 years of age
  • Have a measurable disease
  • Have a NTRK gene fusion mutation

What will happen if my child takes part in this study?
