My daughter-in-law had the same Grade 2 astrocytoma removed almost 3 years ago. She goes to MD Anderson every 3 months for scan to monitor new growth. Her doctor there has suggested she can take Ivosidenib (FDA approved for other cancers) or wait for Vorasidenib (not FDA approved yet) that is specifically designed for brain tumors and showing promising results. Has anyone tried this drug?

I am also waiting for the FDA approval of this drug but still on Ivosidenib. How have your daughter’s scans been? My scan in December showed no growth and possibly less dense than after surgery. I will get another scan at the end of March.
