A Pilot Study of Larotrectinib for Newly-Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma With NTRK Fusion
Is NCT04655404 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Early Phase 1 trial studies Larotrectinib for high grade glioma.
Treatment: Larotrectinib — This is a pilot study that will evaluate disease status in children that have been newly diagnosed high-grade glioma with TRK fusion. The evaluation will occur after 2 cycles of the medication (Larotrectinib) have been given. The study will also evaluate the safety of larotrectinib when given with chemotherapy in your children; as well as the safety larotrectinib when given post-focal radiation therapy.
