Study start date: May 28, 2013

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This study focuses on the treatment of patients with Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors and Neuroblastoma using a drug called LEE011. The main goal was to find the right dose and see how well it works. However, due to lack of efficacy, the enrollment was stopped early and the dose-expansion part was not conducted. The study is important as it aims to find a new treatment option for these types of cancers, which could potentially improve patient care and outcomes. During the study, patients received LEE011 treatment and were monitored for any side effects within the first 28 days. The study specifically looked at Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs), which are harmful side effects that are not related to the disease itself or other illnesses. These DLTs were used to make decisions about dose escalation. The study measured the results by counting the number of DLTs that occurred within a primary system organ class. It's important to note that a patient with multiple DLTs within a primary system organ class was only counted once.

Protocol

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.
Design Details

32 patients to be enrolled

Total number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.



Eligibility

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria: person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Confirmed diagnosis of MRT or, neuroblastoma or in dose escalation part, other tumors with documented evidence of D-cyclin-CDK4/6-INK4a-Rb pathway abnormalities (dose escalation part only), * Patients with CNS disease should be on stable doses of steroids for at least 7 days prior to first dose of LEE011 with no plans for escalation. * In expansion part, patients must have at least one measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1. * Patients must have a Lansky (≤ 16 years) or Karnofsky (\> 16 years) score of at least 50. Exclusion Criteria: * Prior history of QTc prolongation or QTcF \> 450 ms on screening ECG. * Patients with the following laboratory values during screening: * Serum creatinine \> 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age * Total bilirubin \>1.5 x ULN for age * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) \> 3 x ULN for age; aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(SGOT) \> 3 x ULN for age except in patients with tumor involvement of the liver who must have AST/SGOT and ALT/SGPT ≤ 5 x ULN for age. For the purpose of this study, the ULN for SGPT/ALT is 45 U/L. * Patients who are currently receiving treatment with agents that are metabolized predominantly through CYP3A4/5 and have a narrow therapeutic window and/or agents that are known strong inducers or inhibitors CYP3A4/5 are prohibited. In particular, enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs (EIAEDs). * Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may interfere with the interpretation of study results, and in the judgment of the investigator would make the patient inappropriate for the study.
