2. Karnofsky/Lansky Performance Status >60.
3. Life expectancy ≥ 3 months.
4. Patients with recurrent malignant brain tumors confirmed by histology or cytology, who have failed standard treatment (disease progression after treatment or intolerable treatment); patients who have previously received BRAF and/or MEK inhibitor therapy are allowed to be included in this study.
5. Positive BRAF V600 mutation result confirmed prior to the administration of HSK42360.

7. Measurable disease by RANO criteria.
8. Patients with inactive CNS lesions, or patients treated with ≤5mg/day corticosteroid and without convulsion for ≥2 weeks.
9. Adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function.
10. Women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 90 days after the last dose.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with NF1 mutation.
2. malignant tumor within 2 years, with the exception of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, cervical carcinoma in situ, papillary thyroid carcinoma, or other tumors with low malignancy.
3. Uncontrollable pleural effusion, ascites, or pericardial effusion per protocol.
4. Treatment with any of the following:

   Prior treatment with anti-tumor drug within 4 weeks or approximately 5 × t1/2 prior to the first dose of HSK42360, whichever is shorter; Prior treatment with nitrosourea or mitomycin C within 6 weeks prior to the first dose of HSK42360; Prior treatment with palliative radiotherapy or anti-tumor herbs within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of HSK42360; Prior treatment with radiotherapy, electric field therapy, or other anti-tumor therapies within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of HSK42360.

5. Any unresolved toxicities from prior therapy greater than Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 1 at the time of starting study treatment, with the exception of alopecia, dermal toxicity, and other toxicity considering no safety risks by investigator.
6. Any disease which would preclude drug absorption, metabolism or pharmacokinetics, eg. active peptic ulcer or chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease.
7. Patient who have clinically significant or uncontrolled cardiac disease, include: QTc interval ≥ 450 msec; any clinically significant arrhythmia; left ventricular ejection fraction < 50%; myocardial infarction, unstable angina, or class III/IV cardiac failure by the NYHA that occurred within 6 months prior to the first dose of HSK42360.
8. Any thromboembolic events within 6 months prior to the first dose of HSK42360; any familial or aquired thrombophilia.
9. Any unstable systemic disease, eg. severe metabolic disease: liver cirrhosis, renal failure, or uremia.

17. Participate in other clinical trials within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of HSK42360.
18. Positive pregnancy test, or breastfeeding.
19. Any other circumstances that would, in the investigator's judgment, prevent the subject's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures.
