GOMEKLI is proven to help kids with NF1-PN
Actor portrayal.
What is GOMEKLI (mirdametinib)?
GOMEKLI is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 2 years of age and older with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) who have plexiform neurofibromas (PN) that cause symptoms and cannot be completely removed by surgery.
It is not known if GOMEKLI is safe and effective in children younger than 2 years of age.
GOMEKLI is a MEK inhibitor, which is targeted therapy – not traditional chemotherapy. It works by helping to block certain signals in the body that cause plexiform neurofibromas to grow.
Watch this video for tips on how to talk to your doctor about GOMEKLI.
GOMEKLI has been proven to shrink plexiforms in children and adolescents (age 2-17) with NF1-PN
GOMEKLI was studied in one of the largest (N=114) clinical trials for neurofibromatosis type 1 with plexiform neurofibromas (NF1-PN).
The single-arm trial enrolled 58 adults (age 18+) and 56 children/adolescents (age 2-17), including some who already had undergone at least 1 PN-related surgery. At the start of the trial, pain and changes in appearance were the most common PN-related symptoms reported by adults and children.
52% of children/adolescents
(29 out of 56) treated with GOMEKLI
SAW THEIR PLEXIFORM SHRINK by at least 20%*

*Reduction in plexiform size had to be confirmed on a later magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan.
†The 50% reduction in plexiform size was an exploratory analysis, meaning it was not specifically defined in advance of the trial.
Plexiform is short for plexiform neurofibroma, which can also be called a PN.
I experienced good results with GOMEKLI. After about 1 year on treatment, my doctor shared that my plexiform had shrunk by 57%.

In children/adolescents who benefited from treatment, plexiforms started to shrink within months of taking GOMEKLI
In children/adolescents who benefited from treatment, plexiforms began to shrink by at least 20% within 4 to 19 months of starting GOMEKLI. The median (middle) amount of time it took for plexiforms to begin shrinking was 7.9 months.
The GOMEKLI clinical trial was about 2 years long. After that,
85% of eligible children/adolescents chose to keep taking GOMEKLI in an optional long-term follow-up phase of the study.
Watch this video of GOMEKLI study investigator Dr. Hirbe walking viewers through the results of the clinical study.
Possible side effects with GOMEKLI (mirdametinib)
In children and adolescents, the most common ones were:
- Diarrhea
- Muscle, joint, and bone pain
- Stomach (abdominal) pain
- Vomiting
- Headache
- Nausea
- Skin redness, swelling, or pain around the fingernails or toenails
The most common severe abnormal blood test results in children and adolescents involved decreased white blood cell counts and an increased enzyme called creatine phosphokinase (CPK).
Most children/adolescents taking GOMEKLI did not have to stop treatment due to a side effect
had to stop treatment due to a side effect
Your healthcare provider may interrupt, reduce, or permanently stop GOMEKLI treatment if you experience certain side effects.
GOMEKLI may also cause serious side effects, including:
Eye problems
Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following signs or symptoms of eye problems:
- Blurred vision, loss of vision, or other changes to your vision
Heart problems
Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following signs or symptoms of heart problems:
- Coughing or wheezing, shortness of breath, swelling of your ankles and feet, tiredness, increased heart rate
Skin problems
Tell your healthcare provider if you develop any of the following signs or symptoms of skin problems:
- Flat skin rash, raised bumps on the skin, skin bumps that look like acne, skin redness, itchy rash, peeling skin
These are not all the possible side effects of GOMEKLI. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
