Evaluating liver damage from TURALIO™ treatment
A Long-term Study to Further Evaluate the Risk of Hepatotoxicity Associated With TURALIO™ (Pexidartinib) Treatment
This study is testing the long-term risk of liver damage from TURALIO™ treatment in patients with tenosynovial giant cell tumor who have liver issues.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the long-term risk of liver failure associated with TURALIO™ (pexidartinib) in patients with symptomatic tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) who experience hepatotoxicity. Participants will undergo liver biopsies to analyze immune cell profiles and investigate the mechanisms behind liver injury. Additionally, blood samples will be collected to monitor liver function and conduct pharmacogenomic testing. Patients will be followed for at least 10 years to evaluate the long-term safety and risk of hepatic failure.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with symptomatic TGCT who have experienced liver test abnormalities due to TURALIO™ treatment.
Not a fit: Patients who have not experienced hepatotoxicity from TURALIO™ or those with TGCT amenable to surgical improvement may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide critical insights into the liver safety profile of TURALIO™, potentially improving patient management and treatment outcomes.
How similar studies have performed: While this study is focused on long-term hepatotoxicity evaluation, similar studies assessing drug safety profiles have shown success in identifying risks and improving patient outcomes.
