New drug duo tested to fight disfiguring tumors

NCT ID NCT06502171

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether combining two existing cancer drugs, cabozantinib and selumetinib, is safe and effective for shrinking painful and disfiguring tumors (plexiform neurofibromas) in people aged 16 and older with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). The research will first find the safest dose of the drug combination and then see how well it reduces tumor size. The goal is to offer a new treatment option for tumors that are hard to treat with surgery or other therapies.
