Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study's purpose is to see if the drug, abemaciclib, is safe and effective when given with other drugs to kill cancer cells. The study is open to children and young adults with solid tumors, including neuroblastoma, that did not respond or grew during other anti-cancer treatment. For each participant, the study is estimated to last up to 2 years.

Inclusion Criteria

* Parts A and B only:

* Participants must be less than or equal to (≤)18 years of age.
* Body weight greater than or equal to (≥)10 kilograms and body surface area (BSA) ≥0.5
* Participants with any relapsed/refractory malignant solid tumor (excluding lymphoma), including central nervous system tumors, that have progressed on standard therapies.
* For sites that are actively enrolling Parts B and C, participants with neuroblastoma who are eligible for Part C will be excluded from Part B unless approved by Lilly CRP/CRS.
* Part C only:

* Participants must be less than (\<) 21 years of age.
* Participants have a BSA ≥0.2 m².
* Participants with first relapse/refractory neuroblastoma.
* All Parts

* Participants must have measurable or evaluable disease by RECIST v1.1 or RANO.

* Prior treatment with drugs known to be strong inhibitors or inducers of isoenzyme cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) or strong inhibitors of uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) if the treatment cannot be discontinued or switched to a different medication at least 5 half-lives prior to starting study drug.
* Received prior treatment with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4 \& 6 inhibitor.
* Part C only: Received prior systemic therapy for relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma.
* Part C only, have received prior anti-GD2 therapy during induction phase.
* Currently enrolled in any other clinical study involving an investigational product or non-approved use of a drug or device.
* Has received an experimental treatment in a clinical trial within the last 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.
