Study Summary

The purpose of this study was to estimate the maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose for expansion of LDK378 as a single agent, assess safety, tolerability and anti-tumor activity and characterize single and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics when administered orally to pediatric patients with ALK-activated tumors, with and without food.

Primary Outcome

A DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant therapies that occurs within the first 21 days of treatment with LDK378 and meets a specified defined criteria. A participant with multiple occurrences of DLTs under one treatment is counted only once in the Adverse Event category for that treatment. A participant with multiple DLTs within a primary system organ class is counted only once
