Arthritis drug halted early in trial for rare tumor syndrome

NCT ID NCT05605587

Summary

This study tested whether leflunomide, a drug used for rheumatoid arthritis, could slow or shrink tumors in people with a rare genetic condition called MEN1. MEN1 causes tumors in multiple glands and reduces life expectancy. The trial aimed to see if six months of daily leflunomide treatment could control these tumors, but it was stopped early after enrolling only three participants.
