Clinical summary

Summary

This trial is part of the CAMPFIRE master protocol, which is a platform to accelerate the development of new treatments for children and young adults with cancer. 

Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to one of two treatment arms.

In Arm A, participants will receive abemaciclib targeted therapy, given orally, in combination with chemotherapy consisting of irinotecan given intravenously (IV) and temozolomide given orally.

In Arm B, participants will receive chemotherapy consisting of irinotecan given IV and temozolomide given orally.

Participation in this trial could list 11 months or longer, depending on how participants' and their tumours respond to treatment.

This trial is treating people with relapsed or refractory Ewing's sarcoma
