Efficacy of MAPK inhibitors in children with neurodegenerative Langerhans cell histiocytosis: Results from the European Consortium for Histiocytosis. [PDF]
Abstract Neurodegenerative Langerhans cell histiocytosis (ND‐LCH) is a severe and debilitating complication of LCH with no effective treatment. In this study, we assessed the efficacy of MAPK inhibitors (MAPKi) in a large cohort of children with ND‐LCH. We included pediatric patients with ND‐LCH who received MAPKi between 2013 and 2025.
