Targeted treatment of brainstem neurohistiocytosis guided by urinary cell-free DNA

OBJECTIVE: To identify a treatment-responsive BRAF(V600E) mutation in brainstem neurohistiocytosis, where no lesional tissue was readily obtainable, using a cell-free DNA approach. METHODS: Cell-free DNA was extracted from urine and allele-specific PCR for the BRAF(V600E) mutation was performed. Res...
