Read the transcript

This trial is for patients aged six months or older with qualifying Langerhans cell histiocytosis or other histiocytic disorders. Disease and prior-treatment rules vary by age. Children must weigh at least 20 kilograms, and everyone must swallow tablets.

The idea: cobimetinib blocks MEK growth signals. Treatment runs 21 days on, seven days off, for twelve cycles. A BRAF mutation is not required.

This phase 2 study plans 90 patients. Carl Allen at Baylor College of Medicine chairs the study, with ten recruiting US sites.
