Cemiplimab for Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
(BIOSELECT Trial)
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
Background - Advanced cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (mycosis fungoides, MF) is an incurable extranodal mature lymphoma with poor prognosis. Currently available therapies provide only short-term remissions. Rationale - MF is an immunogenic cancer and expresses a high number of neoantigens. therefore it it reasonable to assume that it would respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Objectives - The primary objective is to test the clinical efficacy (objective response rate) of the immune checkpoint inhibitor cemiplimab in patients with advanced mycosis fungoides (MF) who failed first-line therapy, defined as the sum of complete and partial responses (where at least 50% reduction of mSWAT is achieved).
Eligibility Criteria
Adults with advanced cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) who have not responded to at least one prior therapy can join this trial. They must be able to consent, follow the study plan, and use effective birth control if of childbearing potential. People with certain organ dysfunctions or those taking immunosuppressants cannot participate.Inclusion Criteria
