Epithelioid glioblastoma (eGB), a very aggressive and rare brain tumour, is associated with a dismal median overall survival. Effective therapies for patients with eGB, particularly with leptomeningeal dissemination, are still lacking. Here, we describe a case of a 25-year-old male diagnosed with an intramedullary cervical tumour with subsequent leptomeningeal disease. Histopathology identified a highly necrotising, epithelioid-type tumour with high cell density, most compatible with the diagnosis of an eGB. DNA analysis revealed an unprecedented B-Raf protooncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) gene variant in exon 15 (ENST00000288602.6, c.1799_1810delinsATG, p.(V600_W604delinsDG)), triggering activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Consequently, we initiated MAPK inhibitor (MAPKi) therapy, utilizing a combination of BRAF and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitors. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis confirmed the drugs' presence in the patient's cerebrospinal fluid, indicating their capacity to cross the blood-brain barrier. Remarkably, the patient responded very well to therapy and transitioned from a near-comatose state to significantly improved health, sustained for over three months. This study highlights that MAPKi, particularly targeted towards novel BRAFV600 mutations, might offer promising advancements in eGB treatment strategies.
