Study Description
Some rare cancer such as rhabdoid tumors or epithelioid sarcoma have been shown to have a molecular dysfunction allowing a protein called EZH2 to favour tumour developpment. Tazemetostat is an EZH2 inhibitor and is expected to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. The aim of this Phase I study is to evaluate the dose, safety, tolerability, antitumor activity and other pharmacologic characteristics of Tazemetostat in children with refractory or relapsed solid cancer for which no standard therapy is available or for which the subject is not eligible for the existing therapy.
