Indication/Tumor Type glioblastoma
Response Type sensitive

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Guideline Actionable Combination of Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) is included in guidelines for patients with recurrent glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E (NCCN.org). detail...
BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination treatment resulted in a complete resolution of symptoms and radiographic partial response after the first treatment in a patient with glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E whose disease progressed on PLX8394 treatment, and a complete response after 11 months of treatment, CDKN2A/B loss and CHEK2 T367fs were also identified in the tumor (PMID: 32923904). 32923904
BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination treatment resulted in significant clinical improvement in a patient with epithelioid glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E, however, her disease progressed after 3 months of therapy (PMID: 31217909). 31217909
BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, combination therapy of Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) resulted in improved clinical symptoms in a patient with epithelioid glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E, and treatment of the patient's cells resulted in decreased cell viability, reduced phosphorylation of Mek and Erk, increased apoptotic activity compared to either agent alone, and cell cycle arrest in culture, and led to tumor growth suppression in the patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 31345255). 31345255
BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, an epithelioid glioblastoma patient harboring BRAF V600E treated with Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination therapy resulted in stable disease, and the patient continued to demonstrate stable disease at least 16 months after initiation of therapy (PMID: 29632053). 29632053
BRAF V600E glioblastoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Phase II Actionable In a Phase II trial (ROAR), Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) combination treatment resulted in an objective response in 32% (10/31, 2 complete responses, 8 partial responses) and stable disease in 19% (6/31) of patients with glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E (PMID: 34838156; NCT02034110). 34838156
