What this study is testing

What is Apatinib Mesylate?

Apatinib Mesylate is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for recurrent atypical/malignant meningioma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Apatinib mesylate may be an effective treatment for recurrent atypical/malignant meningioma. This prospective clinical study is now planned to verify the effectiveness and safety of apatinib mesylate in the treatment of relapsed atypical/malignant meningioma.

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
