Revumenib’s FDA Approval and Clinical Implications
Panelists discuss the FDA approval of revumenib for relapsed/refractory acute leukemia (R/R AML) with KMT2A translocation, reviewing the eligible patient population and the mechanism of action of this menin inhibitor, while exploring key findings from the AUGMENT-101 trial and how this approval may impact treatment approaches in both the R/R and broader AML settings.

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.
