Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Remission of NF1-related plexiform neurofibroma (PN);Secondary Objective: Reversal of clinical symptoms of NF1-related PN Exploratory: Evaluate changes in cognitive performance;Primary end point(s): Remission of tumor volume =20% evaluated with volumetric MRI;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: month 18 (interim analysis) and month final analysis at month 30.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Reversal of clinical symptoms of NF1-related PN. Evaluated with pain diary, VAS scale or Faces Pain Scale, from month 0 to 30 following. Descriptive. Exploratory: Change of either; full scale IQ or primary indexes (WISC V), Learning and Memory functions and visuospatial functions (selected test from NEPSY II), or attention (Conners CPT3); with p-value <0.05;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: month 18 (interim analysis) and month final analysis at month 30 for pain and after month 18 for cognitive function.
