LOXO-RET-18036: A Study of Oral LOXO-292 in Pediatric Patients With Advanced Solid or Primary Central Nervous System Tumors

Why are we doing this research?

To determine the safety of oral LOXO-292 in pediatric patients with advanced solid tumors: Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) [ Time Frame: During the first 28-day cycle of LOXO-292 treatment ]

LOXO-RET-18036: A Phase 1/2 Study of the Oral RET Inhibitor LOXO 292 in Pediatric Patients With Advanced RET-Altered Solid or Primary Central Nervous System Tumors


Who can participate?

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Advanced or metastatic solid or primary CNS tumor which has failed standard of care therapies
  • Evidence of an activating RET gene alteration in the tumor and/ or blood
  • Measurable or non-measurable disease
  • Karnofsky (patients 16 years and older) or Lansky (patients younger than 16) performance score of at least 50.
  • Patient with primary CNS tumors or cerebral metastases must be neurologically stable for 7 days prior and must not have required increasing doses of steroids within the last 7 days.
  • Adequate hematologic, hepatic and renal function.
  • Ability to receive study drug therapy orally or via gastric access
  • Willingness of men and women of reproductive potential to observe conventional and effective birth control

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Major surgery within 2 weeks prior to planned start of LOXO-292.
  • Clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiac, cardiovascular disease or history of myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to planned start of LOXO-292.

  • Clinically significant active malabsorption syndrome.
  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • Uncontrolled symptomatic hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism (i.e. the patient required a modification to current thyroid medication in the 7 days before start of LOXO-292).
