First seen Jan 12, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This study tests an oral drug called MEKTOVI (binimetinib) in children and young adults (ages 1 to 39) with a rare brain tumor called adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) that has come back or is growing. The drug works by blocking certain signals that help tumors grow. The main goal is to see if the drug can shrink or stabilize the tumor. Participants must have had prior surgery or radiation. This is not a cure, but aims to control the disease.
