Study Summary

This trial is testing the combination of two existing treatments, mogamulizumab and extracorporeal photopheresis, to see if they are more effective than either treatment alone in treating patients with Sezary syndrome or mycosis fungoides.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Sezary syndrome or mycosis fungoides, specific forms of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Participants must have a certain level of physical fitness (ECOG <=2), not more than three prior systemic therapies, and adequate organ function. Pregnant or breastfeeding women are excluded, and participants must agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of mogamulizumab (a drug that targets cancer cells) with extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), a treatment involving blood processing with light exposure to kill cancer cells. The goal is to see if this combo is more effective for treating skin-affecting cancers than current methods.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the infusion site, immune system-related issues due to mogamulizumab targeting proteins on T-cells, fatigue, skin irritation from ECP treatment, and potential complications related to the immune response.

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (mogamulizumab, ECP)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
INDUCTION (WEEKS 1-7): Patients receive mogamulizumab IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 36 in the absence of disease progression progression and unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo extracorporeal photopheresis on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36 in the absence of disease progression and unacceptable toxicity. TREATMENT (CYCLES 1-12): Patients receive mogamulizumab IV over 60 minutes on days 1 and 15, and undergo extracorporeal photopheresis on days 1 and 15 of cycles 1-6, then day 1 of subsequent cycles. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression and unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE (CYCLES 13+): Patients with clinical benefit may continue extracorporeal photopheresis on day 1. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression and unacceptable toxicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Can you elaborate on the other explorations that have been conducted using Extracorporeal Photopheresis?

"Currently, 10 clinical trials for Extracorporeal Photopheresis are in progress. None of those studies have achieved Phase 3 status yet. Despite the base of operations being Bethesda, Maryland, 48 distinct medical centres are conducting research on this treatment modality."

Answered by AI

What is the ultimate aim of this experiment?

"The primary outcome of this study, which shall be measured over a 3-year period post treatment, is the Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (DLT's). Secondary outcomes include Time to response based on GRS and estimated via the Kaplan Meier Method, Duration of Response calculated in the same way as well as Progression Free Survival evaluated through Cox proportional hazards models. Statistical significance will also be determined by assessing any potential interaction terms between these factors."

Answered by AI

Does this research still have open slots for individuals to join?

"Clinicaltrials.gov confirms that this experiment is actively seeking participants, having been posted on April 21st 2021 and edited as recently as June 15th 2022."
