Real-World data shows Tirabrutinib's promise for rare brain cancer
NCT ID NCT06714370
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 24 adults in Taiwan with a rare brain lymphoma that came back or didn't respond to treatment. Researchers checked how well the drug tirabrutinib worked and what side effects occurred in everyday medical practice, not a strict research lab. The goal was to see how many patients had their tumors shrink or disappear.
