Summary:

      This phase II Pediatric MATCH trial studies how well vemurafenib works in treating patients
      with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders with BRAF V600 mutations
      that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have come back (recurrent) or do
      not respond to treatment (refractory). Vemurafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by
      blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

          -  Patient must have enrolled onto APEC1621SC and must have been given a treatment
             assignment to Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice (MATCH) to APEC1621G based on the
