Eighty-two patients with either mycosis fungoides (MF) or parapsoriasis en plaques were treated with psoralens ultraviolet A light (PUVA). Clinical and histologic parameters were followed for a period from 6 months to 10 years. Complete clinical clearing of lesions was observed in 51 patients (62%) and most of them were in limited-plaque MF group or parapsoriasis en plaque. The mean total dose of PUVA for complete clearing was less for early MF. Thirty-one patients (38%) relapsed and responded to additional PUVA. Patients in early stages of the disease remained clear for up to 68 months after the first course of PUVA. Post-treatment skin biopsies with early MF showed histologic clearing. A new combination therapy for MF is presented in 15 patients. Recombinant interferon alpha-2a (Roferon-A), administered intramuscularly combined with PUVA were tested in a phase I trial. Interferon doses were from 6-30 million units three times weekly. Disease stages ranged from I-B to IV-B. Complete responses were obtained in 12 of 15 patients, and partial responses seen in 2 of 15 patients, for an overall response rate of 93%. The median duration of response exceeded 23 months (range, 3 to 25 months). All responding patients have been maintained on therapy. The dose-limiting toxicities were constitutional symptoms such as fevers and malaise (93.3%), leukopenias (40.0%), mental status changes consisting of depression and confusion (33.3%), and photosensitivity (26.6%). Interferon plus PUVA appear to be highly effective regimens for the treatment of patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphomas.
82例蕈样肉芽肿(MF)或斑块状副银屑病患者接受了补骨脂素紫外线A光(PUVA)治疗。对临床和组织学参数进行了6个月至10年的随访。51例患者(62%)病变完全临床清除,其中大多数为局限性斑块状MF组或斑块状副银屑病患者。早期MF完全清除所需的PUVA平均总剂量较少。31例患者(38%)复发,再次接受PUVA治疗有效。疾病早期的患者在第一个疗程的PUVA治疗后长达68个月保持病情缓解。早期MF患者治疗后的皮肤活检显示组织学清除。15例MF患者采用了一种新的联合治疗方法。在I期试验中测试了重组干扰素α-2a(罗扰素-A)肌肉注射联合PUVA的治疗方案。干扰素剂量为每周3次,每次600万至3000万单位。疾病分期从I-B到IV-B。15例患者中有12例获得完全缓解,15例中有2例获得部分缓解,总缓解率为93%。缓解的中位持续时间超过23个月(范围为3至25个月)。所有有反应的患者均持续接受治疗。剂量限制性毒性为全身症状,如发热和不适(93.3%)、白细胞减少(40.0%)、由抑郁和意识模糊组成的精神状态改变(33.3%)以及光敏反应(26.6%)。干扰素联合PUVA似乎是治疗皮肤T细胞淋巴瘤患者的高效方案。
