New treatment option for Low-grade Glioma
Official title Binimetinib in Patients With BRAF Fusion-positive Low-grade Glioma or Pancreatic Cancer (Perfume)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06159478
What this study is testing
What is Binimetinib 15 MG?
Binimetinib 15 MG is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for low-grade glioma.
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
- This study is an open-label, parallel, 2-cohort, multicenter, investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of binimetinib in patients with advanced or recurrent low-grade glioma or pancreatic cancer harboring BRAF fusion/rearrangement.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
