👥Biography 个人简介
Research on IDH-mutant lower-grade gliomas has advanced significantly with the INDIGO trial establishing vorasidenib (oral IDH1/2 inhibitor) for grade 2 IDH-mutant glioma — the first new treatment to improve progression-free survival in this disease in many years. IDH mutations occur in the majority of lower-grade gliomas and represent a key molecular target, with vorasidenib representing an important advance for this younger patient population.
