Summary
This trial tests a new drug and procedure to treat tumors.
Who is the study for?
Adults with a confirmed diagnosis of desmoid tumor that is either growing or causing symptoms, and who can swallow tablets. The tumor must be partially treatable by cryoablation without harming nearby critical structures. Participants need proper organ function, no severe cardiac issues or recent heart attacks, and cannot be on certain medications. Women must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and use contraception; men agree to use condoms.
What is being tested?
The trial tests the effectiveness of nirogacestat taken orally followed by a single cryoablation procedure for treating desmoid tumors. Nirogacestat is given first to potentially shrink the tumor before freezing it with cryoablation to destroy remaining cancer cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to cold temperatures from cryoablation affecting nearby tissues and typical drug-related effects such as digestive disturbances, liver enzyme changes, blood disorders, fatigue, and possible allergic reactions.
