Failure of salvage vemurafenib therapy for refractory multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis with BRAF-V600E mutation

2021-09-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) has been defined as a disorder driven by misguided myeloid differentiation, with up to 50% of cases harboring the BRAF-V600E mutation. Salvage treatment with LCH refractory to vinblastine and steroid regimen is intractable. Vemurafenib is safe and effective in children with refractory BRAF-V600E -positive LCH, but the disease always reactivates with the wit...
