Summary

This trial uses erdafitinib to treat patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders that have spread and come back or don't respond to treatment with FGFR mutations.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for children and young adults aged 12 months to 21 years with advanced solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders that have FGFR mutations. Participants must be able to swallow tablets, have not been treated with erdafitinib before, and meet specific health criteria like normal bilirubin levels and kidney function.

What is being tested?

The study tests the effectiveness of erdafitinib in patients whose cancer has returned or is resistant to treatment. It aims to see if this drug can stop cancer growth by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. The trial includes imaging tests like X-rays and MRIs as well as biospecimen collection.

What are the potential side effects?

While the document does not list specific side effects of erdafitinib, similar medications often cause diarrhea, dry mouth, nail changes, low appetite, altered taste sensation, hair loss and may affect liver function which will be monitored during the trial.

Experimental Treatment

Group I: Treatment (erdafitinib)Experimental Treatment11 Interventions

Patients receive erdafitinib PO QD on days 1-28 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 26 cycles (2 years) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo an x-ray, CT scan, MRI, PET scan, radionuclide imaging, and/or bone scan, as well as a bone marrow aspiration and/or biopsy during screening and on study. Patients also undergo blood sample collection on study.
