About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Mycosis Fungoides

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Male or Female
  • ≥ 18 years of age
  • Documentation of diagnosis as evidenced by one or more clinical features consistent with Mycosis Fungoides cutaneous T-Cell lymphoma
  • Written informed consent obtained from subject or subject's legal representative and ability for subject to comply with requirements of the study
  • Skin biopsy specimen of representative lesion obtained at screening of study and deemed diagnostic of Mycosis Fungoides by principal investigator
  • Eligible, in the opinion of the investigator, for low dose TSEBT over the course of two weeks.
  • Availability of subject to be observed for up to 18 months post-screening evaluation.
  • Life Expectancy greater than 6 months

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or breast-feeding females
  • Presence of a condition or abnormality that in the opinion of the investigator would compromise the safety of the patient or the quality of the data
  • Patients diagnosed with Sezary Syndrome. Sezary Syndrome is equivalent to mycosis fungoides that develops to Stage IVA/B with B2 (high blood tumor burden) involvement, and as such requires a more aggressive treatment regimen than Valchlor or TSEBT.
  • Patients who do not have their disease downgrade to stage IA or IB 30 days following low dose TSEBT.
  • Underlying medical condition including unstable cardiac disease, or other serious illness that would impair the ability of the patient to undergo treatment
  • Minimum 3 weeks since prior systematic treatment or phototherapy
  • Decisionally-impaired individuals, prisoners, and vulnerable populations

    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Arm Label

    TSEBT & mechlorethamine gel 0.016%

    Arm Description

    All subjects enrolled in the study will receive two weeks of low dose total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) (12 Gy total divided into 6 fractions delivered over two weeks) followed by a weekly maintenance mechlorethamine gel 0.016% regimen for one year. The initiation of the mechlorethamine gel regimen is dependent on their disease stage downgrading to IA and IB following low dose TSEBT.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Time to progression
    To assess the time to progression of patients treated with total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) followed by the year-long maintenance Valchlor regimen.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Response rate (CR and PR)
    To assess the response rate (CR and PR) of patients treated with total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) followed by the year-long maintenance Valchlor regimen. . CR and PR are defined as the standard oncology criteria for complete response (100% reduction from the baseline score) and partial response (50% to <100% reduction from the baseline score).

    Brief Summary
    The clinical efficacy of mechlorethamine gel (Valchlor) as a maintenance therapy after low dose total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) for the treatment mycosis fungoides cutaneous T-cell lymphoma will be evaluated in this study. Subjects will be treated with low dose TSEBT (12 Gy total) over a period of two weeks. After a 30 day observation period and confirmation that their disease stage has been downgraded to IA or IB, subjects will use Valchlor as a maintenance therapy over the course of one year. The efficacy of Valchlor as a maintenance drug will be followed clinically through Modified Severity Weight Assessment Tool (mSWAT) and percent body surface area measurements (%BSA). Furthermore, subjects will be followed histopathologically through skin biopsies performed at the screening visit, immediately after observation period, one month after the start of the maintenance period, and twelve months after the start of the maintenance period (4 biopsies total).

    8. Arms, Groups, and Interventions

    Arm Title
    TSEBT & mechlorethamine gel 0.016%
    Arm Type
    Experimental
    Arm Description
    All subjects enrolled in the study will receive two weeks of low dose total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) (12 Gy total divided into 6 fractions delivered over two weeks) followed by a weekly maintenance mechlorethamine gel 0.016% regimen for one year. The initiation of the mechlorethamine gel regimen is dependent on their disease stage downgrading to IA and IB following low dose TSEBT.
    Intervention Type
    Radiation
    Intervention Name(s)
    Total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT)
    Intervention Description
    TSEBT will be given in 6 fractions at 2 Gy per fraction every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday over the course of 2 weeks (total TSEBT dosage is 12 Gy). Supplements up to 8 Gy will routinely be applied to the perineum and soles as well as any other "shadowed" sites involved by disease, such as the inframammary regions, scalp, etc. Discrete tumors may receive additional "boost" up to 8 Gy.
    Intervention Type
    Drug
    Intervention Name(s)
    mechlorethamine gel 0.016%
    Other Intervention Name(s)
    Valchlor
    Intervention Description
    The maintenance period for this study includes one year of weekly mechlorethamine gel 0.016%. This period will not begin until the observation period (30 days) has been completed. During the first week of the maintenance period, patients will apply mechlorethamine gel to the entire body surface daily. After the first week, patients will apply mechlorethamine gel to entire body surface one time per week for the rest of the maintenance period.
