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

Eligibility Criteria

Age16 Years - 55 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

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
