Official Title: Phase II Trial Of Campath-1H In Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Advanced Mycosis Fungoides or Sezary Syndrome

Brief Summary:

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as alemtuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well alemtuzumab works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory advanced mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome.


Detailed Summary:

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the response rate of patients with relapsed or recurrent advanced mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome treated with alemtuzumab.
  • Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive alemtuzumab IV over 2 hours three times per week. Treatment continues for up to 12 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 12-37 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.


Sponsor: Northwestern University

Current Primary Outcome:

  • Determine response rate associated with Campath-1H therapy in patients with relapsed Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome [ Time Frame: At baseline, weekly while on treatment, then once when patient goes off study ]
    Response rate associated with Campath-1H therapy in patients with relapsed Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome will be assessed by medical photograph (skin lesion) measurements or by CT scan for internal lesions upon study entry, weekly while on study, then once when patient goes off study
  • Collect data on toxicity associated with Campath-1H therapy [ Time Frame: At baseline and then every 2 weeks while on therapy ]
    Toxicity of this drug will be assessed upon study entry and then every 2 weeks while on therapy by blood tests
