First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a drug called zanzalintinib in 100 people with meningioma that has returned or worsened after standard treatments like surgery or radiation. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the disease. Participants take the drug by mouth, and researchers will monitor tumor response and safety.

What this could mean

Active substance

zanzalintinib (a drug taken by mouth that targets tumor growth)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with meningioma that has come back or worsened after standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a mid-stage trial with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not shrink tumors or improve survival, and side effects are possible.
