NCT ID NCT07371182

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new daily oral drug called luvometinib in children aged 0-18 with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) that affects certain bones. LCH is a rare condition where immune cells build up and can cause bone damage. The drug targets a faulty cell signal found in nearly all cases. Researchers want to see if this pill can keep the disease from coming back and improve quality of life, with fewer side effects than standard chemotherapy.

Participants

About 62 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Jun 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Dec 2030

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Children aged 0-18 years, both sexes. 2. Pathologically confirmed diagnosis of LCH (CD1a+ and/or CD207+), with no prior treatment specific to LCH. 3. Patients assessed as having single-system multifocal bone involvement, single-site bone involvement at central nervous system risk sites (central nervous system risk sites include craniofacial region \[excluding parietal, occipital, and frontal bones\], orbital, ear, and oral regions), or single-site vertebral bone involvement with intraspinal space-occupying lesion compressing the spinal cord. 4. Signed informed consent, willing to receive treatment according to this protocol and undergo follow-up. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with other underlying diseases, such as primary immunodeficiency, heart failure, renal insufficiency, hepatitis virus infection, HIV infection, post-organ transplantation, etc. 2. Secondary malignancy. 3. QTcF \> 0.47 seconds on electrocardiogram prior to enrollment. 4. Ophthalmologic screening prior to enrollment reveals retinal vein occlusion, retinal pigment epithelial detachment, or other ocular diseases. 5. Patients with LCH carrying category 3 MEK mutations, specifically the following mutation sites: L98\_I103del, L98\_K104del, P105\_A106del, P105\_I107delinsL, L101\_I103delinsF, E102\_I103delinsF, E102\_I103del, E102\_I103delinsV, E102\_I103delinsVN, E102\_K104delinsQ, I103\_A106del. 6. Refusal to sign the informed consent form.
