In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Cassie Kline, MD, MAS, about updated efficacy data from the phase 2 FIREFLY-1 study (NCT04775485) of tovorafenib (Ojemda) in patients with relapsed/refractory pediatric low-grade glioma (pLGG) that were presented at the 2025 Society of Neuro-Oncology Annual Meeting. Dr Kline is an attending physician and director of Clinical Research in the Department of Neuro-Oncology at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania.
In our exclusive interview, Dr Kline discussed longer-term efficacy and safety data from the trial, noting the sustained response rates, continued tumor shrinkage, and rates of patients who remained treatment free after approximately 36 months of follow-up.
