First seen Apr 08, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests a drug called binimetinib in people with hairy cell leukemia that does not have the BRAF gene mutation. Standard treatments don't work for these patients. The drug targets a different gene (MEK) that is often active in this type of leukemia. About 40 adults will take the drug twice daily in 28-day cycles to see if it can shrink or control their cancer.
