23 May 2016
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Purpose: Alteration of the BRAF/MEK/MAPK pathway is the hallmark of pediatric low-grade gliomas (PLGGs), and mTOR activation has been documented in the majority of these tumors. We investigated combinations of MEK1/2, BRAFV600E and mTOR inhibitors in gliomas carrying specific genetic alterations of the MAPK pathway. Experimental Design: We used human glioma lines containing BRAFV600E (adult high-grade:...
