Anmerkungen

MAP2K1 (MEK1) is a dual-specificity kinase directly downstream of BRAF and upstream of ERK1/2. Activating mutations constitute an alternative mechanism of MAPK pathway activation in tumors that lack BRAF mutations. Key clinical contexts: (1) Hairy cell leukemia variant (HCL-V): MAP2K1 K57E present in ~40–50% of HCL-V cases (which are BRAF V600E-negative by definition). Cobimetinib (MEK inhibitor) shows activity in MAP2K1-mutant HCL-V in small series; no FDA approval but NCCN 2B evidence. (2) Low-grade glioma (LGG): MAP2K1 mutations are one of the MAPK pathway alterations (~5–10% of BRAF-fusion-negative LGGs). Trametinib (MEK inhibitor) shows activity in pediatric LGG with MAPK pathway alterations per FIREFLY-1 trial (binimetinib/trametinib). (3) Melanoma: MAP2K1 mutations occur in ~5–8% as secondary resistance to BRAF inhibitors; MEK inhibitors still active but combination needed. (4) Histiocytic disorders (ECD, LCH): MAP2K1 mutations as alternative to BRAF V600E. Do not confuse MEK inhibitors approved for BRAF V600E indications — those approvals are as adjuncts to BRAF inhibitors (vemurafenib + cobimetinib; dabrafenib + trametinib) and are not driven by MAP2K1 mutation status.
