Phase II Study of Enasidenib in IDH2-mutated Malignant Sinonasal and Skull Base Tumors

Background: Cancers of the nasal cavity or skull base are rare. They often are not diagnosed until they are at an advanced stage, and they often spread to other parts of the body. These cancers may have mutations in a gene called IDH2. Researchers want to find out if a drug (enasidenib) that targets the IDH2 mutation can help people with these cancers.
