Title Case report and literature review of BRAF-V600 inhibitors for treatment of papillary craniopharyngiomas: A potential treatment paradigm shift.
URL
Abstract Text The BRAF-V600E genetic mutation offers a potential targeted therapy for the treatment of papillary craniopharyngiomas.A 35-year-old man underwent a craniotomy and subtotal resection of a large BRAF-V600E-positive papillary craniopharyngioma before referral to our institution. Our treatment included the BRAF-V600 inhibitor dabrafenib mesylate (75 mg, twice/day) and trametinib dimethyl sulfoxide (2 mg/day). The residual tumour decreased in size by 95% over 21 months without negative side effects.We reviewed the literature on BRAF-V600E inhibition as a non-invasive method of treating papillary craniopharyngiomas harbouring the BRAF-V600E mutation.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
