I'm not versed in reading biomedical studies, but I'm curious about this. A successful in vitro test would not necessarily mean that the medicine could overcome other biological challenges such as the blood-brain barrier for delivering medication to brain tumors. Is my assumption correct?

Means nothing for human treatment. It means something to the people working on the drug.
