Therapy Name | Tovorafenib |
Synonyms | |
Therapy Description |
Ojemda (tovorafenib) is an inhibitor of pan-Raf kinases, which interrupts RAF/MEK/ERK signal transduction pathways to inhibit tumor cell growth (PMID: 28082416, PMID: 30622172). Ojemda (tovorafenib) is FDA approved for use in patients 6 months or older with relapsed or refractory pediatric low grade glioma harboring BRAF fusion or rearrangement or BRAF V600 mutation (FDA.gov). |
