Idasanutlin and Selinexor for the Treatment of Progressive/Relapsed Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid or Extra-CNS Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors, iSTAR Trial

Trial Status: withdrawn

This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of idasanutlin and selinexor in treating patients with atypical teratoid rhabdoid (AT/RT) and extra central nervous system (CNS) malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRT) that are growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive) or that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed/recurrent). Idasanutlin belongs to a class of medications called MDM2 inhibitors. It works by binding to MDM2, which may lead to tumor cell death. Selinexor is in a class of medications called selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE). It works by blocking a protein called CRM1, which may keep tumor cells from growing and may kill them. Giving idasanutlin and selinexor together may be effective in treating participants with progressive or relapsed AT/RT or MRT.
