A Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan in Pediatric Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors (MK-9999-01C/LIGHTBEAM-U01)
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat children with hepatoblastoma or rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) that has relapsed or is refractory: - Hepatoblastoma is a common liver cancer in babies and very young children - RMS is a cancer that starts in muscle cells, often in a child's head and neck, bladder, arms, or legs - Relapsed means the cancer came back after treatment - Refractory means the cancer did not respond (get smaller or go away) to treatment The study treatment HER3-DXd (also known as MK-1022 or patritumab deruxtecan) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goals of this study are to learn: - About the safety of HER3-DXd in children and if they tolerate it - What happens to HER3-DXd in children's bodies over time - If children who receive HER3-DXd have the cancer get smaller or go away
