First seen Nov 10, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study looks at whether people with a slow-growing brain tumor (low-grade glioma) that has a specific gene change (BRAF V600) can safely stop or lower their dose of two targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) after taking them for 12-24 months. About 96 participants will either stop the drugs completely or slowly reduce the dose over 6 months. The goal is to see if the tumor stays under control with less medication.
