About This Histiocytic Neoplasms Study in Middletown

The researchers are doing this study is to find out whether ulixertinib is an effective and safe treatment for people with histiocytic neoplasms.

Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

Histologically confirmed histiocytic neoplasm or histologic findings consistent with histiocytic neoplasm with confirmatory radiologic or molecular findings. Pathologic examination can be performed at any of the enrolling institutions. This qualification is made because it is well known that biopsies of histiocytic neoplasms are variable and do not always demonstrate "typical" morphologic appearance with all of the classically described elements. As a result, histiocytic neoplasms are not exclusively pathologic diagnoses-rather, they are interpretations of histologic findings in a clinical and radiologic context. These criteria were applied in NCT02649972 and will be applied in this trial
Identified mutation in MAPK pathway genes, including but not limited to ARAF, BRAF, RAF1, NRAS, KRAS, MAP2K1, MAP2K2, and NF1 (for primary cohort; no mutation needed for exploratory cohort). Tumor mutation may be identified by tumor sequencing or cfDNA-based sequencing. Concordance between cfDNA and tumor sequencing for BRAFV600E and non-BRAF mutations in histiocytic neoplasms has been documented by our group and others
Measurable disease according to PRC, confirmed by an investigator radiologist
Age (a) ≥18 years prior to interim safety and efficacy analyses or (b) ≥12 years following the interim safety and efficacy analyses
The histiocytic neoplasm must be (a) disease that is recurrent/refractory/persistent despite local therapies, chemotherapy, immunosuppression, or BRAF/MEK inhibitors OR (b) multisystem disease OR (c) single-system disease that is causing end-organ dysfunction and is unlikely to benefit from local or conventional (chemotherapy or immunosuppressive) therapies on the basis of evidence-based guidelines (e.g. symptomatic neurologic-only LCH)
Prior treatment (chemotherapy, immunosuppression, BRAF inhibitor, or MEK inhibitor) is required and the patient must have (a) progressive disease or persistent disease (i.e. having disease measurable by PRC) or (b) intolerance or contraindication to or refusal of, chemotherapy, immunosuppression, BRAF inhibition, or MEK inhibition.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2 (age ≥ 16) or Lansky 50-100 (age 12-15)
Adequate renal function (according to the Cockcroft-Gault equation; creatinine ≤1.5 times upper limit of normal \[ULN\] or a glomerular filtration rate of ≥50 mL/min)
Pediatric patients (\<18 years old) must have a creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 or serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:
\< 13 years- 1.2 (Male),1.2 (Female)
13 to \< 16 years- 1.5 (Male), 1.4 (Female) °≥ 16 years- 1.7 (Male), 1.4 (Female)
The threshold creatinine values in this Table were derived from the Schwartz formula for estimating GFR (Schwartz et al. J. Peds, 106:522, 1985) utilizing child length and stature data published by the CDC.
Patients with renal impairment deemed the direct result of disease and therefore amenable to improvement with Ulixertinib treatment may be enrolled at the discretion of the treating investigator
Adequate hepatic function (total bilirubin ≤1.5 times ULN, aspartate transaminase \[AST\] and- alanine transaminase \[ALT\] ≤3 times ULN or ≤5 times ULN if attributable to liver involvement by tumor). Patients with hepatic impairment deemed the direct result of disease and therefore amenable to improvement with Ulixertinib treatment may be enrolled at the discretion of the treating investigator. Patients with Gilbert's Syndrome may have total bilirubin ≤3 x ULN.
Adequate bone marrow function (hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL, platelets ≥100 x 10\^9 cells/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 x 10\^9 cells/L). Patients with cytopenias deemed the direct result of disease and therefore amenable to improvement with Ulixertinib treatment may be enrolled at the discretion of the treating investigator.
Adequate cardiac function
Left ventricular ejection fraction \>50% as assessed by multi-gated acquisition or ultrasound or echocardiography and
Corrected QT interval (QTc) \<480 ms according to the Fridericia method (QTcF)
Contraception
For women: a negative pregnancy test for those of child-bearing potential, must be surgically sterile, postmenopausal (no menstrual cycle for at least 12 consecutive months), or compliant with a medically approved contraceptive regimen during and for 3 months after the treatment period
For men: must be surgically sterile or compliant with a medically approved contraceptive regimen during and for 3 months after the treatment period
For patients aged \<18 years who are not sexually active: abstinence is an acceptable form of contraception. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the study and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant.
Willing and able to participate in the trial and comply with all trial requirements
Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment
does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of
the investigational agent may be included at the discretion of the site PI

Exclusion Criteria

Uncontrolled or severe intercurrent medical condition
Receipt of any histiocytic neoplasm-directed therapy (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, biologic) within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) before the first dose of ulixertinib. Patients previously treated with radiotherapy must have recovered from acute toxicities associated with such treatment
Histiocytic neoplasm mandated for observation-only or first-line local therapy per established guidelines. Examples would include asymptomatic nodal RDD, asymptomatic osseous ECD, or limited cutaneous LCH
Major surgery within 4 weeks of the first dose of ulixertinib
Pregnant, lactating, or breast-feeding (for women)
Any evidence of serious active infections. Patients are allowed to enroll if they have been fever free for at least 48 h
History or current evidence of risk of retinal vein occlusion or central serous retinopathy. Examples of risk factors to be considered would include uncontrolled ocular hypertension or history of hyperviscosity.
Concurrent therapy with drugs known to be strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP1A2, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4
Concurrent therapy with p-glycoprotein inhibitors and sensitive substrates of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, and CYP3A4/5 with narrow therapeutic indices
Inability to swallow oral medications
Prior stomach or duodenal resection that, in the opinion of the site PI, would affect the breakdown and absorption of the study medications. Patients with a feeding tube will also be excluded, as ulixertinib tablets cannot be taken broken, cracked or otherwise not intact. Note: ulixertinib is primarily absorbed in the duodenum, and therefore the potential inclusion of a patient with any prior stomach or duodenal resection should be discussed with the MSK PI
Concurrent therapy with any investigational agent
Any use of an investigational drug within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter). In addition, any drug toxicities should have recovered to grade 1 or less before start of the trial medication
