What this study is testing
What is Mirdametinib?
Mirdametinib is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for nf1.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label, non-randomized, multi-dose study of mirdametinib monotherapy in adults with NF1 and cNF. In both Phases of the study, participation in the study will comprise three periods: screening, treatment and post-study safety follow-up to be performed at the NF1 and cNF specialty center: Johns Hopkins University.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
