Substudy 01A: Zilovertamab Vedotin in Pediatric and Young Adult Participants With Hematologic Malignancies or Solid Tumors (MK-9999-01A/LIGHTBEAM-U01)

LIGHTBEAM-U01 Substudy 01A: A Phase 1/2 Substudy to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Zilovertamab Vedotin in Pediatric and Young Adult Participants With Hematologic Malignancies or Solid Tumors

Substudy 01A is part of a platform study. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of zilovertamab vedotin in pediatric participants with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)/Burkitt lymphoma, or neuroblastoma and in pediatric and young adult participants with Ewing sarcoma.

The main inclusion and exclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:

Inclusion Criteria:

• For hematological malignancies: Confirmed diagnosis of B-precursor B-ALL or DLBCL/Burkitt lymphoma according to World Health Organization (WHO) classification of neoplasms of the lymphoid tissues.
• For solid tumor malignancies: Histologically confirmed diagnosis of neuroblastoma or Ewing sarcoma.

Exclusion Criteria:

• History of solid organ transplant.
• Clinically significant (ie, active) cardiovascular disease.
• Known history of liver cirrhosis.
• Ongoing Grade >1 peripheral neuropathy.
• Demyelinating form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
• Diagnosed with Down syndrome.

• Received prior systemic anticancer therapy including investigational agents within 4 weeks before the first dose of study intervention (except for prophylactic intrathecal chemotherapy and/or cytoreductive therapy with steroids/hydroxyurea.
• Received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention. Administration of killed vaccines is allowed.
• Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to study intervention administration.
• Known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 1 year.
• Active infection requiring systemic therapy.
• Known history of Hepatitis B or known active Hepatitis C virus infection.
• Participants who have not adequately recovered from major surgery or have ongoing surgical complications.
