UK trial aims to repurpose existing drugs for rare and Hard-to-Treat cancers

NCT ID NCT07440290

Summary

This trial is testing if two already-approved cancer drugs, dabrafenib and trametinib, can help patients with rare cancers or common cancers that have a rare, specific genetic change called a BRAF V600 mutation. The drugs are already used for some cancers like melanoma, but researchers want to see if they work for many other cancer types with the same mutation. The goal is to provide new treatment options for adults and children with these hard-to-treat cancers by matching the drug to the patient's specific genetic profile.
