abstract = {PDGFRA is crucial to tumorigenesis and frequently
genomically altered in high-grade glioma (HGG). In a
comprehensive dataset of pediatric HGG (n = 261), we detect
PDGFRA mutations and/or amplifications in $15\%$ of cases,
suggesting PDGFRA as a therapeutic target. We reveal that
the PDGFRA/KIT inhibitor avapritinib shows (1) selectivity
for PDGFRA inhibition, (2) distinct patterns of subcellular
effects, (3) in vitro and in vivo activity in
patient-derived HGG models, and (4) effective blood-brain
barrier penetration in mice and humans. Furthermore, we
report preliminary clinical real-world experience using
avapritinib in pediatric and young adult patients with
predominantly recurrent/refractory PDGFRA-altered HGG (n =
8). Our early data demonstrate that avapritinib is well
tolerated and results in radiographic response in 3/7 cases,
suggesting a potential role for avapritinib in the treatment
of HGG with specific PDGFRA alterations. Overall, these
translational results underscore the therapeutic potential
of PDGFRA inhibition with avapritinib in HGG.},
