Sezary Syndrome Erythroderma Erythroderma >90% Thick, edematous Thermal dysregulation Generalized lymphadenopathy Generalized lymphadenopathy Blood involvement Blood involvement 1x10 9 /L 5% of Lymphs CD4:CD8 ratio >10 (n 10 (n<3) High LDH / Ca Median Survival <2 yrs Median Survival <2 yrs
11
Therapeutic Options Skin Based Treatments Skin Based Treatments PUVA Focused radiation TSEB Narrow Band UVB Topical Steroids Topical Retinoids Topical Imiquimod Topical Nitrogen Mustard
12
Radiation Local Rads Local Rads Local control Tumour stage disease Stage 1a disease in one rad field Potentially curative Total Skin Electron Beam Radiation Total Skin Electron Beam Radiation 6 week course, Hamilton Juravinski Cancer Centre
13
Therapeutic Options Systemic Systemic Interferon alpha Oral Retinoids Extracorporeal Photophoresis (ECP) Chemotherapy Other HiDAC inhibitors - vorinostat Low dose Methotrexate Dinileukin diftitox Pentostatin IL12 Campath
14
Principles of Management Immune based therapy Immune based therapy Progressive disease associated with immune dysregulation Decreases in Th1 response IL 12, INFalpha, NKcells, CD8 TcellsIL 12, INFalpha, NKcells, CD8 Tcells Therapies that add to immunosuppression can produce more rapid disease progression
15
Principles of Management Early Stage Disease Early Stage Disease Survival is similar to age matched controls Skin based treatments to start Add immunomodulatory agents if needed Interferon has best evidence Maintenance therapy No change in OS
16
Principles of Management Advanced Stage Disease Advanced Stage Disease Multiple immunomodulatory agents Systemic and Skin based therapies combined Maintenance Therapy Stay away from systemic chemo if possible if pushed – purine analogues, MTX ? Change in overall survival
17
Primary Cutaneous CD30 + Lymphomas Lymphomatoid Papulosis Lymphomatoid Papulosis Chronic recurrent self healing papulonudular skin eruption with histologic features of lymphoma Large CD30 cells & inflammatory cells Benign course Treatment Observation Local rads Low dose methotrexate
18
Primary Cutaneous CD30 + Lymphomas Anaplastic Large Cell lymphoma of Skin Anaplastic Large Cell lymphoma of Skin CD 30 + large cells, CD4+, ALK1- Can be solitary of mulitifocal Need to be sure no systemic disease Prognosis – 5 yr survival 95% Treatment Solitary – local rads Multifocal – CHOP / methotrexate
