Summary

This trial, Treatment of NF1-related plexiform neurofibroma with trametinib; a single arm,open-label study with the goals of volumetric partial remission and pain relief (EudraCT 2018-001846-32, Sponsor protocol number BUS2018-1, related Novartis reference number CTMT212ASE01T) is a pediatric clinical trial that investigates the potential use of the drug trametinib (Mekinist®) as treatment for symptomatic or likely to become symptomatic NF1-related plexiform neurofibromas (PN) in children between 1 year and 17 year and 11 months of age.

Trametinib is orally administered qd at 0.025 mg/kg up to a maximum of 2 mg from six years of age and 0.032mg/kilo up to 5 years of age, provided either as tablets or as oral solution. It is manufactured and distributed by Novartis under the trade name Mekinist®.

The primary endpoint is remission of tumor volume ≥20%, evaluated using volumetric MRI at 18 and 30 months of treatment.

The secondary endpoint is reversal of pain from NF1-related PN, evaluated monthly with agespecific pain scales; VAS scale (from 8 years) or Faces Pain Scale (from 3 to 8 years).

As an exploratory measure, the potential effects of the treatment on the cognitive function will be assessed using well-established tests such as WISC-V (age range 6:0 - 16:11), NEPSY-II (age range 3:0-16:11), and CPT-3 (age range 8:0 - adult).

Cognitive dysfunction is well described in patients with NF1, and the MAPK/ERK-pathway has been indicated to be involved in cognition.
