  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR ENROLLMENT ONTO APEC1621SC: Patients must be >= 12 months and =< 21 years of age at the time of study enrollment
  • ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR ENROLLMENT ONTO APEC1621SC: Patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, including non-Hodgkin lymphomas, histiocytoses (e.g. langerhans cell histiocytosis [LCH], juvenile xanthogranuloma [JXG], histiocytic sarcoma), and central nervous system (CNS) tumors are eligible; patients must have had histologic verification of malignancy at original diagnosis or relapse except in patients with intrinsic brain stem tumors, optic pathway gliomas, or patients with pineal tumors and elevations of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or serum tumor markers including alpha-fetoprotein or beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG); in cases where patient enrolls prior to histologic confirmation of recurrent disease, patient is ineligible and should be withdrawn from study if histology fails to confirm recurrence; please note: Patients with Hodgkin lymphoma and plexiform neurofibroma are not eligible
  • ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR ENROLLMENT ONTO APEC1621SC: Tumor Testing Requirement: Tumor sample availability requirement for stage 1 of Pediatric MATCH (patients enrolled from start of study in July 2017 through 12/31/21); Patients must have an formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor sample available for MATCH study testing from a biopsy or surgery that was performed at any point after initial tumor recurrence/progression, or be planned to have a procedure to obtain such a sample that is considered to be of potential benefit by the treating clinicians; a tumor sample from a clinically performed diagnostic (pre-treatment) biopsy will be acceptable for enrollment onto Pediatric MATCH only for children with high-grade gliomas of the brainstem (diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas) or thalamus
  • Please note: Samples that have been decalcified using standardly utilized acid-based decalcification methods are not generally suitable for MATCH study testing; the nucleic acids will have been degraded in the decalcification process
  • ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR ENROLLMENT ONTO APEC1621SC: Tumor molecular profiling report availability requirement for Stage 2 of Pediatric MATCH (patients enrolled starting 2022): In stage 2 of the study, no tumor samples will be submitted for centralized clinical tumor profiling; instead, a tumor molecular profiling report from a College of American Pathologists (CAP)/ Clinical Laboratory Improvements Amendments (CLIA)-approved testing laboratory must be submitted for review by the Molecular Review Committee (MRC)
  • This molecular profiling must have been performed on a tumor sample that was obtained at any point after initial tumor recurrence/progression and must be accompanied by a pathology report for the same tumor specimen; a molecular profiling report for a diagnostic (pre-treatment) tumor sample will be acceptable for enrollment onto Pediatric MATCH only for children with high-grade gliomas of the brainstem (diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas) or thalamus. In the event that molecular profiling reports are available from multiple timepoints, the most recent report should be prioritized for study submission

About this study

Official title: NCI-COG Pediatric MATCH (Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice) Screening Protocol

This phase II Pediatric MATCH screening and multi-sub-trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/or for which no standard treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic mutation, and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To utilize clinical and biological data to screen for eligibility to phase 2 pathway-targeting specific subprotocols of pathway-targeting agents in pediatric patients with advanced solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and histiocytic disorders.

II. To determine the proportion of pediatric patients whose advanced tumors have pathway alterations that can be targeted by select anti-cancer drugs. (Completed as of Amendment #4. Patients enrolled on or after Amendment 4 will not be included in this analysis as screening of unselected patients will no longer be conducted.)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To obtain preliminary information on the response rate to targeted therapy in patients whose tumors lack actionable alterations as defined for the molecular analysis for therapy choice (MATCH) study, for selected agents for which efficacy is observed in the primary matched cohort.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To increase knowledge of the genomic landscape of advanced pediatric solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and histiocytic disorders.

II. To describe the genomic changes that occur in advanced pediatric cancers between the time of initial diagnosis and relapse, in cases for which paired tumor specimens are available.

III. To explore approaches to diagnosing and profiling genomics of advanced pediatric cancers through evaluation of circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

IV. To determine the frequency and spectrum of germline cancer susceptibility mutations in children with relapsed solid tumors and non-Hodgkin lymphomas and assess the feasibility of return of those results in the National Clinical Trial Network (NCTN) group setting.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of Pediatric Patients Whose Advanced Tumors Have Pathway Alterations That Can be Targeted by Select Anti-cancer Drugs

    Match rate will be calculated as the percent of eligible patients who have an actionable mutation of interest and are matched to at least one of the subprotocols, and confidence intervals will be constructed using the Wilson score interval method. Patients enrolled on or after Amendment 4 will not be included in this analysis as screening of unselected patients will no longer be conducted.

    Measured: Up to 2 years from study entry

Secondary outcomes (1)

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) to Targeted Therapy in Tumors Lacking Actionable Alterations

    Response rates will be calculated as the percent of evaluable patients who are responders, and confidence intervals will be constructed using the Wilson score interval method.

    Measured: Up to 2 years from study entry

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Biopsy Procedure, Biospecimen Collection and Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy in people with Advanced Malignant Solid Neoplasm and Ann Arbor Stage III Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 172 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 54 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 172 sites in United States, Puerto Rico, Australia, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Apr 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of Pediatric Patients Whose Advanced Tumors Have Pathway Alterations That Can be Targeted by Select Anti-cancer Drugs (time frame: Up to 2 years from study entry). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03155620, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Jul 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
