Targeted drug trial offers hope for children with aggressive brain cancer

NCT ID NCT06333899

Summary

This study is testing a targeted drug called lorlatinib in children and young adults (ages 1-21) newly diagnosed with aggressive brain tumors (high-grade gliomas) that have specific genetic changes called ALK or ROS1 fusions. The main goals are to see if the drug can control the tumor and to check its safety, either given alone or alongside standard chemotherapy or after radiation. It's an early-phase study that will enroll up to 15 patients to gather initial data.
