Study Summary

This trial is testing two different drugs to treat different types of pediatric tumors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults up to 21 years old with certain types of cancer, including solid tumors, lymphoma, or brain tumors. They must have relapsed or refractory disease where standard treatments are ineffective. Participants need normal organ function and the ability to swallow pills. Those who've had recent other treatments or surgeries must wait specific periods before joining.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two investigational drugs: BMS-986158 for pediatric solid tumors or lymphoma (Arm 1), and BMS-986378 for pediatric brain tumors or those that have spread to the brain (Arm 2). It aims to see if these drugs are safe and effective in treating these conditions.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, side effects may include typical reactions seen with cancer therapies such as nausea, fatigue, blood count changes, liver issues, allergic reactions similar to components of the drugs being tested.
