ACNS1723: A Phase 2 Study of Dabrafenib (NSC# 763760) with Trametinib (NSC# 763093) after Local Irradiation in Newly-Diagnosed BRAFV600-Mutant High-Grade Glioma (HGG) (IND# 145355)

Protocol:

AAAS7661

Study Status:

Active/Enrolling

Population:

Pediatrics

Phase:

II

The purpose of this study is to see if using two drugs called dabrafenib and trametinib after radiation treatment will be better than treatments used in the past in improving survival for patients with newly-diagnosed high grade glioma (HGG) that have the BRAF V600-mutation (a gene change within tumor cells). It is expected that the combination of these two medications that target the gene change and its cellular growth pathway will demonstrate clinical success when given as maintenance therapy following standard radiation therapy. Treatment on this study may last for approximately 2 years.
