Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib works after radiation therapy in children and young adults with high grade glioma who have a genetic change called BRAF V600 mutation. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and reduce the size of tumors. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking BRAF and MEK, respectively, which are enzymes that tumor cells need for their growth. Giving dabrafenib with trametinib after radiation therapy may work better than treatments used in the past in patients with newly-diagnosed BRAF V600-mutant high-grade glioma.

Primary Outcome

The EFS curve for the new treatment cohort (stratum 1) will be estimated by Kaplan Meier estimates. A 2-sample, 1 sided log-rank test will be used to test whether the EFS distribution is better in new treatment compared with historical control. Calculation of the EFS will be based on the site determination as central review will be performed retrospectively.
