Disseminated juvenile xanthogranuloma harbouring a <i>GAB2::BRAF</i> fusion successfully treated with trametinib: a case report

We present an interesting case of disseminated juvenile xanthogranuloma harbouring a GAB2::BRAF fusion that exhibited dramatic response to trametinib, highlighting the utility of RNA sequencing and targeted next-generation sequencing in non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis in identifying potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract

We present an interesting case of disseminated juvenile xanthogranuloma harbouring a GAB2::BRAF fusion that exhibited dramatic response to trametinib, highlighting the utility of RNA sequencing and targeted next-generation sequencing in non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis in identifying potential therapeutic targets.
