Many patients with IDH-mutant glioma continued to receive vorasidenib as directed in the real-world GLIO-ADHERE claims analysis.
Mirdametinib produced stable disease or partial responses in adults and children with plexiform neurofibromas who had received another MEK inhibitor.
Longer follow-up of the phase 3 INDIGO trial showed that vorasidenib lowered seizure rates in IDH-mutant glioma, an effect driven by oligodendroglioma.
Many patients with BRAF-altered pediatric low-grade glioma stayed off therapy after planned tovorafenib cessation in the 4-year FIREFLY-1 update.
Sarah Goldberg, MD, MPH, details how clinicians can choose among frontline regimens, act on resistance mechanisms, and incorporate ADCs and newer agents across the spectrum of EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
The FDA approved pimicotinib for tenosynovial giant cell tumor, accepted a gedatolisib filing in advanced breast cancer, and more.
Serial amino acid PET flagged responses earlier than MRI in IDH-mutant glioma treated with vorasidenib, interim data show.
Longer mirdametinib treatment increased confirmed and deep responses as treatment-related adverse effects declined in neurofibromatosis type 1 tumors.
