Recruiting PHASE2 High Grade Glioma

New treatment option for High Grade Glioma

Official title Entrectinib as a Single Agent in Upfront Therapy for Children <3 Years of Age With NTRK1/2/3 or ROS1-FUSED CNS Tumors

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06528691

What this study is testing

What is Entrectinib?

Entrectinib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for high grade glioma.

Also referred to as Rozlytrek.

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 clinical trial tests how well entrectinib works to treat patients less than 3 years of age with NTRK 1/2/3 or ROS1 fused, high grade glioma or other central nervous system (CNS) tumors.
  • 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.
