116: Understanding Vorasidenib's Therapeutic Benefit on Neurocognition, Seizure Control in Diffuse Gliomas

  • Resumen

  • Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.


    In this episode, Katherine Peters, PhD, a neurologist and neurooncologist at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University provided context on a new analysis from the phase 3 INDIGO trial, a study assessing vorasidenib in patients with mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase (mIDH) 1/2 diffuse gliomas. The conversation, which occurred at the 2024 AAN Annual Meeting, covered the covered the therapeutic potential of this agent and its impacts on quality of life, neurocognition, and seizure control. Peters, an expert in the field, provided insight on the mechanism of action of vorasidenib, the added value behind the exploratory analysis, and the next steps in research. Furthermore, she provided context on the patient sample observed and why these data may hold significant weight going forward.
