RCT in #desmoid fibromatosis with nirogacestat. Patients on active drug also had a significant improved HRQoL vs placebo. Pain in desmoid patients can affect their HRQoL to a great extent and having a drug that can reduce pain is a big step forward.
In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, oral nirogacestat twice daily led to 41% of patients having a tumor response, and 2-year progression-free survival was 76%. Most adverse events were low grade. https://t.co/wtt7solTHW
