About this trial
This study focused on patients with type I neurofibromatosis undergoing surgical treatment, who currently lack effective drug therapy and have a high recurrence rate after surgical resection. For patients with small solid tumors, limited space, and no invasion of the brain, spine and other important organs, surgical treatment is the main treatment. As a MEK inhibitor, Smetinib bisulfate capsule can induce tumor shrinkage and reduce postoperative recurrence by selectively binding mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK) 1/2 protein to block the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal regulatory kinase signaling pathway that regulates key cell responses. The purpose of this study was to treat patients with type I neurofibromatosis with indications of surgery with the drug smetinib bisulfate after surgical treatment, observe the therapeutic effect of the drug in stages, consolidate the postoperative effect and reduce the recurrence rate. In this study, progression-free survival (PFS) after postoperative drug treatment was used as the main outcome index, and duration of remission (DOR) and objective response rate (ORR) were used as secondary outcome indicators to investigate the efficacy of the use of Smetinib hydrosulfate capsule on tumor control, reduction of recurrence rate and stability of efficacy in patients with type I neurofibromatosis after surgery.
