Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Cumulated incidence of response to treatment
response to treatment after 6 months is defined as * ≥10% improvement of forced vital capacity (FVC) * and/or ≥10% improvement of postbronchodilator forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and ≥200ml
6 months
Secondary Outcomes (13)
Responses to treatment
3 months
Absolute variations of FEV1, FVC, residual volume (RV), and Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO), (expressed in mL)
6 months
Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia or thrombopenia
6 months
Incidence of infection
6 months
Incidence of grade 3 or 4 side effects
6 months
- +8 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
cladribine
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Subcutaneous injections, 0,1 mg/kg/day for 5 days, one course per month for 4 months
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age 16 to 55 yr
- Histologically proven pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis ( patients with presumptive diagnosis whose lung function precludes lung biopsy may be included after revision of their medical record at the national reference center for Langerhans cell histiocytosis)
- Symptomatic pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (NYHA dyspnea class ≥2) with:
- irreversible airflow obstruction (FEV1/FVC\<70%) with postbronchodilator FEV1 comprised between 30 and 70% of predicted
- Signed written informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Women at childbearing age without adequate contraception or wishing breastfeeding
- Male without adequate contraception during the study
- Dyspnea due to severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAP≥35mmHg) confirmed by cardiac right catheterism
- Previous malignancy
- Current infectious disease
- Renal failure
- Liver failure
- Severe alteration of lung
- Hematologic disease unrelated to Langerhans cell histiocytosis
- Epilepsy
- Hepatic, spleen or hematology involvement by Langerhans cell histiocytosis
- Previous treatment with cladribine
- Contra indication to the use of cladribine
- Previous myelosuppressive treatment
- Simultaneous participation to another interventional clinical trial
