Ulixertinib for people with histiocytic neoplasms
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests an oral targeted therapy called ulixertinib for people with histiocytic neoplasms (a rare group of blood cell disorders). It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or control the disease in patients who have not responded to other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of a histiocytic neoplasm (a type of blood cell disorder).
- Your tumor must have a change (mutation) in a specific gene in the MAPK pathway, like BRAF, NRAS, or KRAS.
- Your disease must be measurable on a scan (like a CT or MRI).
- You must be at least 12 years old (if under 18, other age-specific rules apply).
- Your cancer must have come back, not responded, or you cannot tolerate other treatments like chemotherapy or targeted drugs.
- You must have adequate kidney, liver, and bone marrow function.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This early-phase trial tests ulixertinib (a targeted pill) to see how well it works for certain gliomas driven by the MAPK/RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway. It also looks at whether the drug can help control tumor growth around the time of treatment planning.
This trial tests whether the drug ulixertinib, combined with cetuximab (and sometimes encorafenib), can help people with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer who have already tried EGFR or BRAF-targeted therapy. It aims to find new treatment options for these patients.
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, ruxolitinib and ulixertinib, for people with myelofibrosis whose disease is not fully controlled by ruxolitinib alone. The goal is to see if adding ulixertinib can improve spleen enlargement, symptoms, or bone marrow changes.
This trial tests two drugs, ulixertinib and palbociclib, taken together to see if they can shrink tumors in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer, melanoma, or other solid tumors. It may be an option for people who have already tried standard treatments.
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (axatilimab and ruxolitinib) for people with myelofibrosis or a related blood cancer called CMML. The goal is to see if the combination works better than standard treatments for these diseases.
This trial tests a combination of a targeted drug (ruxolitinib) with a less intense version of standard chemo for adults with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). It aims to control the overactive immune response while reducing side effects.
