Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) commonly develop non-cancerous tumors called plexiform neurofibromas. These tumors can be defined as "high-risk" when they result in severe pain, physical disability, organ dysfunction and/or become life-threatening. Presently, there is no effective medical therapy to offer patients with "high-risk" plexiform neurofibromas, and surgery does not provide lasting help. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of two treatment combinations in patients with "high-risk" plexiform neurofibromas.
