Study Summary

This trial is studying the effect of combining two treatments, extracorporeal photopheresis and mogamulizumab, to treat erythrodermic cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
Adults (18+) with erythrodermic cutaneous T cell lymphoma, specifically mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome. Participants must have an ECOG performance status of <=2, meet certain blood and organ function criteria, agree to birth control if applicable, and can provide tissue samples. Excluded are those who've had recent cancer treatments or live vaccines, other active malignancies within 5 years (with some exceptions), unstable heart disease, autoimmune disorders in the past 3 years (with exceptions), infections needing systemic treatment, or require dialysis.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a combination therapy for skin lymphoma involving extracorporeal photopheresis—where white blood cells are treated with UV light outside the body—and mogamulizumab—a monoclonal antibody that may stop cancer growth. The study aims to see if this combo can effectively kill tumor cells and boost immune response against cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to mogamulizumab such as infusion-related symptoms (fever, chills), skin rash, fatigue; complications from extracorporeal photopheresis like low blood pressure during the procedure; and general risks associated with immunotherapies such as increased risk of infections.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (ECP, mogamulizumab)Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients receive mogamulizumab IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, of cycle 1 and days 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles. Beginning in cycle 2, patients also undergo ECP over 3 hours on days 8, 9, 22,and 23. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CR)/PR after 6 cycles receive up to 6 additional cycles of treatment in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
