Abstrakt: Background: The MEK inhibitor, selumetinib, reduces plexiform neurofibroma (PN) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Its safety and efficacy in adults with PN and effectiveness in other NF1manifestations (e.g., neurocognitive function, growth reduction, and café-au-lait spots) are unknown.
Methods: This open-label, phase 2 trial enrolled 90 pediatric or adult NF1 patients with inoperable, symptomatic, or potentially morbid, measurable PN (≥ 3 cm). Selumetinib was administered at doses of 20 or 25 mg/m2 or 50 mg q 12 hrs for 2 years. Pharmacokinetics, PN volume, growth parameters, neurocognitive function, café-au-lait spots, and quality of life (QoL) were evaluated.
Results: Fifty-nine children and 30 adults (median age, 16 years; range, 3-47) received an average of 22±5 (4-26) cycles of selumetinib. Eighty-eight (98.9%) out of 89 per-protocol patients showed volume reduction in the target PN (median, 40.8%; 4.2%-92.2%), and 81 (91%) patients showed partial response (≥ 20% volume reduction). The response lasted until cycle 26. Scores of neurocognitive functions (verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, processing speed, and full-scale IQ) significantly improved in both pediatric and adult patients (P <0.05). Prepubertal patients showed increases in height score and growth velocity (P <0.05). Café-au-lait spot intensity decreased significantly (P <0.05). Improvements in QoL and pain scores were observed in both children and adults. All adverse events were CTCAE grade 1 or 2 and were successfully managed without drug discontinuation.
Conclusion: Selumetinib decrease PN volume in the majority of pediatric and adult NF1 patients while also showing efficacy in non-malignant diverse NF1 manifestations.
