  • Patients must be between 12 months to 18 years old 
  • At minimum, patients must be up and about at least 50% of their waking hours 
  • Blood work must come back within the acceptable ranges
  • Patients must have adequate heart function 
  • All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent
  • Your study doctor will discuss with you the medications you can and cannot take

Study Description

Some cancer, called hypermutant cancer, have been shown to have multiple genetic changes  or abnormalities that block DNA repair and favor tumour development. Nivolumab is a human monoclonal antibody that binds and blocks PD-1 on tumors cells.  The PD-1 pathway is an immune system checkpoint that may be used by cancer tumour cells to help them trick the immune system (escape surveillance) and avoid being destroyed. By blocking the PD-1 pathway, nivolumab reactivates cells from the patient immune system to help it identify and destroy the cancer cells. It is expected to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells.

In this phase I/II study, patients will not be randomized and all enrolled on the clinical trial will receive nivolumab.  The study will evaluate the dose, safety, tolerability, effect on the cancer and other important characteristics of nivolumab.  This study includes pediatric patients with recurrent or refractory hypermutant cancer aged 12 months to 18 years, including those with  bMMRD syndrome. for which no standard therapy is available or for which the subject is not eligible for the existing therapy.

Inclusion Criteria

•    Patients must be greater than 2 months and less than 25 years of age at time of enrollment. Please note, some hospitals may not be able to treat patients above certain ages (e.g., 18 years old).
•    Recurrent or relapse paediatric cancer suspected to be hypermutant, including those exhibiting evidence of genetic or molecular alterations such as: high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) in current or previous tumour, mutation causing loss of mismatch repair gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, EPCAM or MSH3) expression, hypermutation by local sequencing in current or previous tumour, a history of CMMRD, Lynch syndrome, xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), or other established disorder affiliated with an elevated hypermutation rate, a functional mutation of polymerase genes (POLE or POLD1) in current or previous tumour, a functionally impaired RRD pathway by other means; etc. 
•    Patients must have histologic or cytologic confirmation of malignancy at the time of initial diagnosis or relapse (as specified above). Patients with multiple concurrent and/or sequential neoplasms are eligible, including CNS and haematological malignancies.
•    Patients must be able to provide tumour sample (archival or a new biopsy). If a tumour sample (including archival) is not available, a new tumour sample may be needed. Any such biopsy will not be considered a trial-related procedure.

Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team.

Study Description

This study is to evaluate the drug called BMS-986158 as a possible treatment for pediatric solid tumors, lymphoma, or brain tumors. BMS-986158 belongs to a group of drugs called "Bromodomain (BRD) and Extra-Terminal Domain (BET) inhibitors". These drugs block proteins from the BET family that are important in reading part of the DNA involved in apoptosis and cell cycle progression. It 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 BMS-986158 in children with refractory or relapsed pediatric solid tumors, lymphoma, or brain tumors for which no standard therapy is available or for which the subject is not eligible for the existing therapy.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Age ≤ 21 years at time of enrollment.
  • All patients must be able to swallow intact capsules.
  • Participants must have evaluable or measurable disease and must have disease that is relapsed or refractory and for which standard curative measures do not exist or are no longer effective.

  • Disease genetic alterations: MYCN amplification or high copy number gain, translocation involving MYC or MYCN, translocation involving BRD4 or BRD3

Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team.

Study Description

This is a Phase 1 clinical trial designed to study a drug called 23ME-00610 in children and adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to or gotten worse after stardard therapy, or where no further standard therapy exists. In Part A of this study, researchers are looking to find the best possible dose of 23ME-00610 (called the recommended phase 2 dose). Part B of this study will evaluate how the patients body responds to the drug 23ME-00610 and continue monitoring safety. 

Inclusion Criteria
  • To enroll in Part B of the study, the patient must be  ≥ 12 years of age
  • Patient must weigh at least 40kg
  • Patient must have a solid tumor:
    • that has progressed after all available standard therapy
    • or for which standard therapy has been ineffective
    • or for which no standard therapy exists
  • Patient is up and about for at least half of their waking hours 
  • Patient must have a solid tumor that has not previously been exposed to radiation

Additional inclusion or exclusion criteria may apply and will be discussed with you by the study team
