Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?In the proposed trial, patients will be administered ribociclib prior to surgical resection of their tumor. Patients will be enrolled in time-intervals sequentially (non-randomized). All patients will be orally-administered 5 doses of LEE011 (900 mg/d) with the final dose occurring at one of 3 intervals before brain tumor resection.

Eligibility Criteria

Adults with recurrent glioma or meningioma who've had one prior surgery, can sign consent, and meet specific lab criteria. They must not have used ribociclib before, have other recent cancers (except certain skin/cervical cancers), significant heart issues, uncontrolled medical conditions, known hypersensitivity to ribociclib's components or be pregnant/nursing.

Participant Groups

The trial tests Ribociclib given orally in 5 doses before tumor removal surgery. Patients are enrolled sequentially based on time intervals rather than randomized. The last dose is timed at one of three set periods before the operation.
