A Phase II Study of Combination Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP) and Mogamulizumab in Erythrodermic CTCL

Description

This phase II trial studies the effect of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) and mogamulizumab in treating patients with erythrodermic cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), a type of skin lymphoma. CTCL is a rare type of cancer that begins in the white blood cells called T cells. Erythrodermic is a widespread red rash that may cover most of the body. ECP is a medical treatment that removes blood with a machine, isolates white blood cells and exposes them to ultra violet light, then returns the cells to the body. Mogamulizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving mogamulizumab with ECP may work together to kill the tumor cells directly (with mogamulizumab) and boost immune response to cancer (with ECP).PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess tolerability and overall response rate (ORR) of the (ECP)/mogamulizumab regimen in CTCL patients previously untreated with mogamulizumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To estimate complete respons

The following are exceptions to this criterion: * Intranasal, inhaled, topical or local steroid injections (e.g., intra-articular injection) and are on stable dose for at least 28 days * Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses of \< 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent * Live, attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose protocol therapy * Disease free of prior malignancies for \>= 5 years with the exception of: * Currently treated squamous cell and basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or * Carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or * Surgically removed melanoma in situ of the skin (stage 0) with histological confirmed free margins of excision, or * Prostate cancer (T1a or T1b using the TNM \[tumor, nodes, metastasis\] clinical staging system) that has/have been surgically cured, or * Any other malignancy that has/have been curatively treated with surgery and/or localized radiation * Active infection requiring antibiotics * Known hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection * Other active malignancy * Females only: Pregnant or breastfeeding * Prior stem cell transplantation * Acute infection requiring systemic treatment * Conditions requiring chronic steroid or immunosuppressive treatment that likely need additional steroid or immunosuppressive treatments in addition to the protocol therapy * Renal failure requiring hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis * Unstable cardiac disease as defined by one of the following: * Cardiac events such as myocardial infarction (MI) within the past 6 months * NYHA (New York Heart Association) heart failure class III-IV * Uncontrolled atrial fibrillation or hypertension * Major surgery (as defined by the investigator) within the 28 days prior to the first dose of study treatment * Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders requiring therapy within the past 3 years prior to the start of treatment.
