Lead Sponsor: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

Brief Summary: This was a 4-part (Part A, Part B, Part C and Part D), Phase I/IIa, multi-center, open label, study in pediatric subjects with refractory or recurrent tumors.

Part A was a repeat dose, dose escalation and expansion phase that identified the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of trametinib monotherapy. Part B evaluated the preliminary activity of trametinib monotherapy in 4 disease-specific cohorts of subjects. Part C was aimed to determine the safety, tolerability and preliminary activity of the RP2D of trametinib in combination with a limited dose escalation of dabrafenib. Part D evaluated the preliminary activity of trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in 2 disease-specific cohorts of subjects.

The overall goal of this trial was to efficiently establish safe, pharmacologically relevant dose of trametinib monotherapy and trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in infants, children and adolescents and determine preliminary activity of trametinib monotherapy and trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in selected recurrent, refractory or unresectable childhood tumors.

Detailed Description: This was a 4-part (Part A, Part B, Part C and Part D), Phase I/IIa, multi-center, open label, study in pediatric subjects with refractory or recurrent tumors.

Part A was a repeat dose, dose escalation and expansion phase that identified the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of trametinib monotherapy using a 3 + 3 dose- escalation procedure. The starting dose level of trametinib was 0.0125 mg/kg/day, the second dose level was 0.025 mg/kg/day and the third dose level was 0.040 mg/kg/day. Additionally, in Part A extension an intermediate trametinib dose level of 0.032 mg/kg/day was assessed in subjects under 6 years of age. In all cohorts, the total daily trametinib dose was not to exceed the adult dose (2 mg) in any subject.

Part B evaluated the preliminary activity of trametinib monotherapy in 4 disease-specific cohorts of subjects:

B1: Refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma B2: Recurrent or unresectable low grade glioma (LGG) with BRAF tandem duplication with fusion (glioma fusion) B3: Neurofibromatosis Type -1 associated plexiform neurofibromas (NF-1 with PN) that are unresectable and medically significant B4: BRAF V600 mutant tumors In Part B it was used the RP2D of trametinib (0.025 mg/kg/day) determined in Part A.

Part C was a 3+3 study design to determine the safety, tolerability and preliminary activity of the RP2D of trametinib in combination with a limited dose escalation of dabrafenib. The trametinib dose administered in Part C was based on the trametinib monotherapy RP2D from Part A (0.025 mg/kg/day). For the evaluation of combination therapy in this study, the starting dose of dabrafenib was 50% of the monotherapy RP2D established in a separate study: 2.63 mg/kg/day (\<12 years old subjects) and 2.25 mg/kg/day (≥12 years old subjects). The second dose level of dabrafenib was 100% of the monotherapy RP2D: 5.25 mg/kg/day (\<12 years old subjects) and 4.5 mg/kg/day (≥12 years old subjects).

Additionally, in Part C extension, the trametinib dose determined from Part A extension (0.032 mg/kg/day) with 100% pediatric RP2D of dabrafenib (5.25 mg/kg/day) was assessed in subjects under 6 years of age.

In all cohorts, the total daily trametinib dose was not to exceed the adult dose (2 mg) in any subject and the total daily dabrafenib dose was not to exceed the adult dose (300 mg) in any subject.

Part D evaluated the preliminary activity of trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in two disease-specific cohorts of subjects diagnosed with low grade glioma (LGG) and Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH).

In Part D it was used the RP2D of the combination treatment determined in Part C (0.025 mg/kg/day trametinib and the 100% RP2D of dabrafenib) in subjects 6 years to \< 18 years of age. Additionally, once Part C extension had defined the trametinib RP2D for subjects under 6 years of age, this dose was used for the remaining subjects enrolled in Part D (0.032 mg/kg/day trametinib and the 100% RP2D of dabrafenib).

The overall goal of this trial was to efficiently establish safe, pharmacologically relevant dose of trametinib monotherapy and trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in infants, children and adolescents and determine preliminary activity of trametinib monotherapy and trametinib in combination with dabrafenib in selected recurrent, refractory or unresectable childhood tumors.

Use of dabrafenib, yes or no, is a covariate on the relative bioavailability of trametinib, reflecting the effect of dabrafenib on the PK of trametinib. The estimates of these covariates (effect of weight on CL/F, effect of sex on CL/F, effect of weight on Q/F, effect of combination with dabrafenib on relative bioavailability F1) calculated with the PopPK model are summarized in this record.
Trough Concentration (Ctrough) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. Ctrough is defined as the observed plasma concentration just prior to the beginning of, or at the end, of a dosing interval.
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. Cmax is defined as the maximum (peak) observed plasma concentration following a dose.
Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. Tmax is defined as the time to reach maximum (peak) plasma concentration following a dose.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. The linear trapezoidal method was used for area under the curve calculation.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the End of the Dosing Interval Tau at Steady-state (AUCtau) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. The linear trapezoidal method was used for area under the curve calculation. The duration of the dosing interval (tau) was 12 hours for dabrafenib.
Apparent Plasma Clearance (CL/F) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. Apparent plasma clearance (CL/F) values were calculated as Dose/AUCtau.
Average Steady State Plasma Concentration (Cavg) of Dabrafenib When Administered in Combination With Trametinib	pre dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post dabrafenib dose on Cycle 1 Day 15. The duration of 1 cycle was 28 days.	Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were calculated based on dabrafenib plasma concentrations by using non-compartmental methods. The average steady state plasma concentration (Cavg) of dabrafenib was calculated as the ratio of area under the curve (AUC)/tau, where tau = 12 h for dabrafenib.
Palatability of Trametinib Oral Solution in Pediatric Subjects Assessed by Palatability Questionnaire	After the first dose of trametinib oral solution and no later than Day 8 (±3 days)	For subjects ≥ 12 years of age who received the trametinib oral solution, the subject completed a form to evaluate the various properties of the solution (e.g., bitterness, sweetness, appearance, texture and overall taste). For subjects \< 12 years of age who received the solution, their caregiver (e.g. parent or guardian) evaluated the solution with the child based on verbal and non-verbal feedback. The questionnaire was completed after the first dose of study drug and no later than Day 8 (±3 days). Subjects completed a form for each drug separately if enrolled in Parts C and D.
Palatability of Dabrafenib Oral Suspension in Pediatric Subjects Assessed by Palatability Questionnaire	After the first dose of dabrafenib oral suspension and no later than Day 8 (±3 days)	For subjects ≥ 12 years of age who received the dabrafenib suspension, the subject completed a form to evaluate the various properties of the suspension (e.g., bitterness, sweetness, appearance, texture and overall taste). For subjects \< 12 years of age who received the suspension, their caregiver (e.g. parent or guardian) evaluated the suspension with the child based on verbal and non-verbal feedback. The questionnaire was completed after the first dose of study drug and no later than Day 8 (±3 days). Subjects completed a form for each drug separately if enrolled in Parts C and D.
