abstract = {Detection of the BRAF V600E mutation in pediatric low-grade
glioma has been associated with a lower response to standard
chemotherapy. In previous trials, dabrafenib (both as
monotherapy and in combination with trametinib) has shown
efficacy in recurrent pediatric low-grade glioma with BRAF
V600 mutations, findings that warrant further evaluation of
this combination as first-line therapy.In this phase 2
trial, patients with pediatric low-grade glioma with BRAF
V600 mutations who were scheduled to receive first-line
therapy were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive
dabrafenib plus trametinib or standard chemotherapy
(carboplatin plus vincristine). The primary outcome was the
independently assessed overall response (complete or partial
response) according to the Response Assessment in
Neuro-Oncology criteria. Also assessed were the clinical
benefit (complete or partial response or stable disease for
≥24 weeks) and progression-free survival.A total of 110
patients underwent randomization (73 to receive dabrafenib
plus trametinib and 37 to receive standard chemotherapy). At
a median follow-up of 18.9 months, an overall response
occurred in $47\%$ of the patients treated with dabrafenib
plus trametinib and in $11\%$ of those treated with
chemotherapy (risk ratio, 4.31; $95\%$ confidence interval
[CI], 1.7 to 11.2; P<0.001). Clinical benefit was observed
in $86\%$ of the patients receiving dabrafenib plus
trametinib and in $46\%$ receiving chemotherapy (risk ratio,
1.88; $95\%$ CI, 1.3 to 2.7). The median progression-free
survival was significantly longer with dabrafenib plus
trametinib than with chemotherapy (20.1 months vs. 7.4
months; hazard ratio, 0.31; $95\%$ CI, 0.17 to 0.55;
P<0.001). Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in
$47\%$ of the patients receiving dabrafenib plus trametinib
and in $94\%$ of those receiving chemotherapy.Among
pediatric patients with low-grade glioma with BRAF V600
mutations, dabrafenib plus trametinib resulted in
significantly more responses, longer progression-free
survival, and a better safety profile than standard
chemotherapy as first-line therapy. (Funded by Novartis;
