Summary

This trial will test a new drug to see if it can safely treat people with tumors reliant on a certain growth signal due to gene changes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with recurrent high-grade glioma brain tumors that have progressed after standard treatments, including surgery, temozolomide chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Participants must have specific EGFR gene changes in their tumors and be able to swallow pills. They should be relatively stable physically (ECOG PS ≤2) and not have severe cardiovascular disease, active infections or liver disease.
What is being tested?
BDTX-1535 is being tested in this study. It's a new drug aimed at blocking a growth signal in cancers linked to certain EGFR protein alterations found only in the tumors. The goal is to see if it can safely help people whose tumors depend on this signal due to these genetic changes.
What are the potential side effects?
While the exact side effects of BDTX-1535 are not listed here, similar drugs often cause issues like fatigue, skin reactions, diarrhea, mouth sores and potential allergic reactions. Patients will be monitored closely for any adverse effects related to organ function.
