First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether the drug vorasidenib can delay tumor progression in people with IDH-mutant grade 2 or 3 astrocytoma after they finish initial chemoradiotherapy. About 468 participants will receive either vorasidenib or a placebo daily. The main goal is to see if vorasidenib extends the time before the tumor grows back.
