This trial is for adults with a growing or symptomatic desmoid tumor. 50 to under 75 percent of its volume must be freezable in one session. Prior gamma-secretase or anti-Notch treatment is excluded.

The idea: nirogacestat blocks gamma-secretase, reducing Notch growth signals. Participants take 150 milligrams orally twice daily for three 28-day cycles, then have one tumor-freezing procedure. Treatment continues afterward, for up to 26 cycles. Researchers measure year-long tumor response or stability.

This phase 2 study plans 28 patients. Stanford’s Nam Bui leads it in Palo Alto, the single recruiting US site.
