A Window of Opportunity Trial of Mirdametinib Plus Vorinostat for NF1 Associated, H3K27 Trimethylation Deficient Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor [MPNST]
NCT06693284 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This is a single center Phase 0 "window of opportunity" trial for the treatment of newly diagnosed, PRC2 deficient, primary malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) with a short course of the combination of mirdametinib and vorinostat prior to the most appropriate standard of care treatment for their specific tumor (typically localized radiation followed by surgical resection). Four to eight patients, 12 years of age or older and meeting the study's biomarker inclusion criteria, would be enrolled onto this trial. After voluntary written consent (assent with parent consent for minors) the patient undergoes MRI and PET imaging of the tumor and a needle biopsy to collect tumor is performed. Patients with histone H3K27 trimethylation deficient MPNST, as confirmed by immunohistochemistry, receive a single 28-day course of mirdametinib and vorinostat at standard oral dosing for each. At day 26, 27, or 28 the patient returns to clinic for a research visit repeating the baseline MRI and PET imaging and the needle biopsy for tumor tissue. This ends direct study participation. The patient goes on to the most appropriate standard of care treatment for their MPNST. Information about the subsequent standard of care treatment is collected for the purposes of this study.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06693284
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06693284 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Early Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 8 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Minnesota, which has 919 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Primary Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which mirdametinib and vorinostat is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06693284 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Minnesota. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
