Pralatrexate For Refractory Mycosis Fungoides In Two Japanese Patients

Pralatrexate has been approved for the treatment of relapsed/refractory peripheral T cell lymphomas. Studies in the U.S. also support the clinical efficacy of pralatrexate to treat advanced-stage cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, but outcomes in Japanese patients have not yet been reported. We herein describe two Japanese patients with heavily-pretreated relapsed/refractory mycosis fungoides that were successfully controlled by pralatrexate.
