Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Effectiveness of the trametynib treatment on cardiac hyperthropy

Reduction of cardiac hypertrophy and/or LVOTO at 6 and 12 months of treatment and at 3 months of follow-up after treatment discontinuation using echocardiographic examination.

Time frame
1 year
2

Effectiveness of the trametynib treatment on laboratory enzymes levels

Decrease in cardiac enzyme levels (NT-pro-BNP and high-sensitivity troponin I) determined in the 6th and 12th month of treatment and in the 3rd month of observation after its discontinuation.

Time frame
1 year

Secondary outcomes

1

MEK kinase activity

Assessment of MEK kinase activity before treatment and after 6 months of its duration, in the patients' blood samples

Time frame
6 months
2

Effectivness of the trametynib treatment assessed in the cardia magnetic resonance

reduction of cardiac hypertrophy in magnetic resonance imaging in the age group of 7-18 years not requiring general anesthesia (comparison of results before inclusion in the study, after 12 months of trametinib treatment and after the end of follow-up after its discontinuation)

Time frame
1 year
