Introduction
• LCH is a heterogonous disease which can affect any organ or system of the body
• Clinical course varies from a self limiting disease to a rapidly progressive fatal disease
• Clinical manifestations depend on site & extent of organ involvement
• Response to chemotherapy is very good but some patients develop recurrence after first line treatment

Methods
• We reviewed the data of recurrent or refractory LCH treated at our center between March’2006 to March’2014
• Safety and efficacy (response rate & progression-free survival) were evaluated
• PFS was calculated from the date of progression after 1st line treatment to the date of progression after salvage therapy with cladrinbine

Results
• N=13
• Median age: 4 years (range: 1-28); Male: Female - 10:3
• All patients received prednisolone, 6-MP, vinblastine and Vp-16 (two patients without etposide) as their 1st line treatment
• Initial response- – PR-10; SD-1; PD-2
• Median time to progression after 1st line treatment: 16.6 months (range: 5-30.9)

• Median follow up: 72 months– Median PFS: 22 months – 5-year overall survival was: 92.3%

Conclusion
• Cladribine is highly effective with manageable toxicity in patients with relapse/refractory LCH
• Many patients respond to subsequent line of therapy and had good overall survival
• Cladribine as salvage therapy can induce a long term disease control and even cure
