New pill targets brain tumors with IDH mutations

NCT ID NCT02481154

First seen Feb 20, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This early-phase trial tested an oral drug called AG-881 in 95 adults with advanced gliomas (a type of brain tumor) that have an IDH1 or IDH2 mutation. The main goals were to check the drug's safety, find the best dose, and see if it shrinks tumors. The study was completed, but because lifelong monitoring and potential follow-up treatments are typical for glioma, this is considered disease control rather than a cure.
