Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Larotrectinib (Vitrakvi, BAY2757556)

Experimental: Phase 1 dose escalation - Patients will receive the different levels of dose on Day 1 (BID in accordance with the cohort assignment). Each cycle will consist of 28 days of continuous dosing.

Individual patients will continue daily larotrectinib dosing until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for treatment discontinuation. (arm closed)

Experimental: Phase 1 dose expansion - Patients who are enrolled in the expansion cohort, following the formal dose escalation phase of the study.

Distinct from the Phase 1 dose escalation cohort, the Phase 1 expansion cohort will enroll pediatric patients with advanced solid or primary CNS tumors with a documented NTRK gene fusion, or in the case of IFS, CMN or SBC with documented ETV6 rearrangement by FISH or RT-PCR or a documented NTRK fusion by NGS.

This expansion cohort will follow the same schedule of assessments as the dose escalation cohorts. (arm closed)

Experimental: Phase 2: Patients with tumors bearing NTRK fusions (IFS)_Cohort 1 - Patients will receive larotrectinib dose on Day 1 (BID in accordance with the cohort assignment) at the recommended Phase 2 dose as determined in the Phase 1 portion of this study. Each cycle will consist of 28 days of continuous dosing.

Individual patients will continue daily larotrectinib dosing until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for treatment discontinuation. (arm closed)

Experimental: Phase 2: Other extra-cranial solid tumors_Cohort 2 - Patients will receive larotrectinib dose on Day 1 (BID in accordance with the cohort assignment) at the recommended Phase 2 dose as determined in the Phase 1 portion of this study. Each cycle will consist of 28 days of continuous dosing.

Individual patients will continue daily larotrectinib dosing until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for treatment discontinuation. (arm closed)

Experimental: Phase 2: Primary CNS tumors_Cohort 3 - Patients will receive larotrectinib dose on Day 1 (BID in accordance with the cohort assignment) at the recommended Phase 2 dose as determined in the Phase 1 portion of this study. Each cycle will consist of 28 days of continuous dosing.

Individual patients will continue daily larotrectinib dosing until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for treatment discontinuation.

Experimental: Phase 2: Bone health assessment_sub-cohort - Patients will receive larotrectinib dose on Day 1 (BID in accordance with the cohort assignment) at the recommended Phase 2 dose as determined in the Phase 1 portion of this study. Each cycle will consist of 28 days of continuous dosing.

Individual patients will continue daily larotrectinib dosing until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for treatment discontinuation.

Patients in this group will undergo bone health assessments in addition to all other efficacy and safety assessments.


Treatment: Drugs: Larotrectinib (Vitrakvi, BAY2757556)
BAY2757556 will be administered orally as capsule or in liquid form over continuous 28-day cycles.

* Adequate hematologic function
* Adequate hepatic and renal function

Data sharing statement
Will individual participant data (IPD) for this trial be available (including data dictionaries)?
No
No/undecided IPD sharing reason/comment
Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014.

Interested researchers can use www.vivli.org to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research. Information on the Bayer criteria for listing studies and other relevant information is provided in the member section of the portal.
