Risk Stratification of Nodal PTCL
Peripheral T-Cell LymphomaNot Otherwise Specified3 moreThis study is to investigate the prognostic significance of enhanced International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI) and post-treatment PET results in patients with newly diagnosed nodal peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), and establish a risk stratification model for nodal PTCL patients.

Clinical Study Assessing Outcomes, Adverse Events, Treatment Patterns, and Quality of Life in Patients...
Mycosis FungoidesThe Valchlor PROVe study is a multi-center, prospective, observational, US-based drug study that longitudinally follows patients with Mycosis Fungoides Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (MF-CTCL) who are receiving therapy with Valchlor. Patients will be followed prospectively for a maximum of 2 years from the date of signed informed consent (enrollment) until end of study. Continuation in the study is not contingent on continuation of Valchlor.
High Risk Adult T-cell Leukemia/Lymphoma (ATLL-HR) and Allogeneic Transplant
T-cell LymphomaLeukaemiaPatients are recruited at diagnosis or at relapse of ATLL-HR in French Caribbean islands and Guyana. They all receive Zidovudine and Pegylated Interferon (ZPI). For patients younger than 65 years old, an allogeneic donor is searching out. Patients included at relapse and with lymphoma clinico-biological subtype also receive chemotherapy (CT). Responses are assessed during ZPI+/-CT and eligible patients (depending on age, comorbidities and response criteria) receive allogeneic transplant. Patient follow-up is planned for 3 years old
T-Cell Project: Epidemiologic Component
Peripheral T-Cell LymphomaBackground: The T-Cell Project, sponsored by the International T-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Study Group, is a consortium of institutions interested in achieving more detailed information on clinical and biological characteristics of T-cell lymphomas. The T-Cell Project serves as a repository for data on patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) worldwide. Its overall goal is to improve T-cell subtype classifications and evaluate treatment strategies for each subtype. Objectives: -To implement a standardized epidemiologic questionnaire into the ongoing T-Cell Project to allow evaluation of various potential risk factors for PTLCs. Eligibility: -Untreated patients 18 years of age and older who were diagnosed with PTLC September 1, 2006, or later. Design: -Patients complete a questionnaire containing the following information: Demographic information Smoking history and alcohol use Personal history or cancer History of cancer among first-degree relatives Medical history History of transplants History of blood transfusions Medication use Occupational and residential history Pesticide treatment -The information collected is linked to clinical and pathologic information in the T-Cell Project database.

Helical Irradiation of Total Skin (HITS) for T Cell Lymphoma
T-cell LymphomaRadiation therapy, total skin electron therapy (TSET), achieves a high response rate and is an effective treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma affecting the superficial region 1. One the most widely used TSET techniques consists of six dual fields initially developed at Stanford University 2. Dosimetrically, TSET at energies of about 3-7 MeV at the surface of a standing patient may result in significant dose variations due to variable skin distance, self shielding, irradiated fields overlapping and patient motion. Deviations occur from the prescription dose up to 40% and the surface dose inhomogeneity as much as 90% in body areas such as the perineum and eyelid, are revealed in the literature. To improve this condition, a selection of patients with advanced skin disease and regional extension could be cured by a combination of TSEB and photon beam irradiation. Helical tomotherapy (HT) has advantages in irradiating extended volumes with treatment length of up to 160 cm, continuously in a helical pattern without the need for field junction. Total marrow irradiation (TMI) via HT with low toxicities for bone marrow transplantation of Asia multiple myeloma patients could be feasible . A study of HT for total scalp irradiation has also shown that the employment of directional and complete blocking on the inner structures can effectively force the tangential delivery of the majority of beamlets to the PTV, which can limit the treatment depth. Using HT, an image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy, to replace conventional TSI technique to increase dose delivery and decrease toxicities could be a workable and feasible. Here, we applied TSI via HT (HITS) for a woman with T cell lymphoma failure by chemotherapy, topic UV irradiation and local radiotherapy (RT) in MMH to overcome the surface dose inhomogeneity by conventional RT. Additionally, we will compare the advantages and disadvantages between the plan of HT and conventional RT for TSI.
