Successful treatment of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with the MEK inhibitor trametinib: a multicenter analysis

Blood Advances, 2023
Abstract Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) and Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) are rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytoses (non-LCHs), for which therapeutic options are limited. MAPK pathway activation through BRAFV600E mutation or other genomic alterations is a histiocytosis hallmark and correlates with a favorable response to BRAF inhibitors ...
