New drug trial offers hope for patients with rare, painful joint tumors

NCT ID NCT04488822

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug pexidartinib can shrink tumors and improve joint movement in adults with a rare, non-cancerous joint tumor called tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT). The trial is for people whose condition causes severe pain or limits their movement and cannot be improved with surgery. Participants will take the drug daily and be monitored for tumor response, side effects, and changes in their physical function.
