BACKGROUND: Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. While multiple guidelines provide treatment recommendations, there are currently no clear treatment algorithms for MF. Chlormethine gel is recommended by major treatment guidelines as a first-line option for stage IA-IIA disease, and, on the basis of these guidelines, used in combination with other therapies in patients with advanced-stage MF in clinical practice.
OBJECTIVES: To provide guidance regarding the use of chlormethine gel for patients with all stages of MF, based on clinical expertise.
METHODS: Opinions on best practices regarding the use of chlormethine gel were collected through discussions that involved eight clinicians with extensive experience in treating patients with MF.
RESULTS: Chlormethine gel can be used as monotherapy in first- or second-line treatment of early-stage MF. In first-line, chlormethine gel monotherapy is prescribed for stage IA MF, and is particularly convenient for patients unable/unwilling to travel for hospital-based phototherapy, patients with thick plaques or palmoplantar involvement, when ultraviolet treatment is contraindicated, and for sanctuary sites. Chlormethine gel is also an appropriate first-line monotherapy for patients with stage IB or IIA MF; it may be used as part of combination regimens in these patients as well. For patients with late-stage MF, skin-directed treatments such as chlormethine gel should be combined with systemic therapies.
CONCLUSIONS: Chlormethine gel is a safe and effective treatment option that can be used in all stages of MF, either as monotherapy or in combination, depending on disease stage and patient characteristics and needs.
