Single-centre experience of using pegylated liposomal doxorubicin as maintenance treatment in mycosis fungoides.

Abstract

Primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) 1 are characterized by cutaneous clonal accumulation of T cells. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common subtype. MF typically progresses slowly from early patch-plaque stage to advanced forms with tumours, erythroderma, and eventually nodal/visceral involvement. Sézary syndrome is characterized by leukemic involvement, lymphadenopathy and erythroderma 2 .
