This trial is for adults with BRAF-wild-type hairy-cell leukemia or its variant, relapsed or refractory after a purine-analog treatment. Blood-count changes, symptoms or other progression criteria must establish a need for treatment. Moxetumomab access and treatment criteria also apply.

The idea: use binimetinib to block MEK1/2 growth signaling. A MEK mutation is not required. Patients take 45 milligrams twice daily in continuous 28-day cycles. Researchers measure responses; selected responders may try stopping therapy. Bone-marrow assessment is required.

This phase 2 study plans 40 patients. Robert Kreitman leads at NIH’s recruiting Bethesda site.
