Official Title: LCH-IV, International Collaborative Treatment Protocol for Children and Adolescents With Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Brief Summary: The LCH-IV is an international, multicenter, prospective clinical study for pediatric Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis LCH (age < 18 years).
Detailed Summary:
The international efforts of the past 20 years have shown that combination therapy with vinblastine and prednisone is an effective therapy for Multi-system (MS)-LCH. The previous prospective trial LCH-III confirmed this regimen as a standard regimen for MS-LCH in patients with and without risk organ involvement. It also showed that prolonged treatment in the latter group (treatment duration of 12 vs. 6 months) is superior in preventing disease reactivations. The results of this trial are encouraging and serve as a basis for the LCH-IV study design.Due to the complexity of the disease presentations and outcomes, the LCH-IV study seeks to tailor treatment based on features at presentation and on response to treatment, leading to seven strata:
- Stratum I: First-line treatment for MS-LCH patients (Group 1) and patients with Single system (SS)-LCH with multifocal bone or "Central Nervous System (CNS)-risk" lesions (Group 2)
- Stratum II: Second-line treatment for non-risk patients (patients without risk organ involvement who fail first-line therapy or have a reactivation after completion of first-line therapy)
- Stratum III: Salvage treatment for risk LCH (patients with dysfunction of risk organs who fail first-line therapy)
- Stratum IV: Stem cell transplantation for risk LCH (patients with dysfunction of risk organs who fail first-line therapy)
- Stratum V: Monitoring and treatment of isolated tumorous and neurodegenerative CNS-LCH
- Stratum VI: Natural history and management of "other" SS-LCH (patients who do not need systemic therapy at the time of diagnosis)
- Stratum VII: Long-term Follow up (all patients irrespective of previ
