Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with one or more brain tumors requiring surgical intervention.

Probably not a fit

Patients without KRAS G12C+ mutations or those not requiring surgical resection may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates the effectiveness of sotorasib in patients with KRAS G12C+ brain tumors who are scheduled for surgical resection or biopsy. It aims to assess the safety and efficacy of the drug, as well as how the body processes it. The trial includes adult patients with advanced brain tumors and evaluates their response to treatment while monitoring for any potential side effects.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with KRAS G12C+ brain tumors.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies targeting KRAS mutations have shown promise, suggesting potential for success in this novel application.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Known allergy or hypersensitivity to study treatment or any of the study drug excipients. For patients who are allergic to gadolinium-based agents may receive premedication as per institutional protocol or imaged without contrast at the discretion of the Principal Investigator; reactions will be managed per standard institutional protocol

  * adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer
  * carcinoma in situ of the cervix
  * Smoldering pre-malignant or malignant conditions with minimal concern for CNS or extracranial progression during treatment such as CLL or MGUS based on the assessment of the treating provider
