Approximately 200 participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be enrolled from 20-25 sites.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Participants diagnosed with NF1 and PN
  • Started selumetinib between the ages of 2 to 18 years inclusive, and initiated selumetinib treatment on or after 10 April 2020, including patients who:
  • Discontinued selumetinib before enrollment; or
  • Initiated treatment before enrollment and are currently on selumetinib; or
  • Initiated selumetinib on the day of enrollment or intend to initiate selumetinib within 3 months after enrollment
  • Able to give written . Participant or participant's parent/legal guardian must be willing and able to give written informed consent and the participant (if minor) must be willing to give written informed assent.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants currently participating in any clinical trials at time of enrollment or initiation of selumetinib.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
