RESUMO

Paciente de 44 años de sexo femenino, sin ninguna enfermedad de base preexistente, con una historia de aproximadamente diez meses de presentar lesiones eritemato-descamativas pruriginosas inicialmente localizadas en extremidades inferiores y que luego se generalizaron en todo el cuerpo, asociándose a la pérdida de peso de aproximadamente 15 kg. El manejo inicial consistió en corticoides tópicos y antihistamínicos orales con poca respuesta clínica. Se inició el estudio por dermatología y se confirmó el diagnóstico inicial de neoplasia cutánea maligna de células T. Luego se realizó el frotis de médula ósea, en el que se identificaron células «cerebriformes¼ que confirmaron el diagnóstico de síndrome de Sézary. La paciente recibió esquema de quimioterapia ciclofosfamida, doxorrubicina, vincristina, etopósido y prednisona. La respuesta inicial fue favorable, con alta hospitalaria y seguimiento en la consulta externa. Transcurridos tres meses de tratamiento, la paciente consultó por episodio febril, tos productiva más distrés respiratorio asociado a estertores basales bilaterales, presentó insuficiencia respiratoria y durante la inducción a la ventilación mecánica sufrió un paro cardiorrespiratorio y falleció


44-year-old female patient, with no preexisting underlying disease, with a history of approximately ten months of presenting pruritic erythematous-desquamative lesions initially localized in the lower extremities and later generalized throughout the body, associated with weight loss of 15 kg. Treatment. Initial management consisted of topical corticosteroids and oral antihistamines with little clinical response. A dermatology wok-up was initiated, and the initial diagnosis of malignant T-cell neoplasm was confirmed. A bone marrow smear was performed, in which "cerebriform" cells were identified, confirming the diagnosis of Sézary syndrome. The patient received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide, and prednisone chemotherapy. Outcome. The initial response was favorable, with hospital discharge and outpatient follow-up. After three months of treatment, the patient consulted for a febrile episode, productive cough plus respiratory distress associated with bilateral basal rales, presented respiratory failure, and during induction of mechanical ventilation suffered cardiorespiratory arrest and died.

RESUMO

Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. MF is the most common cutaneous lymphoma, and it is classified into classic Alibert-Bazin MF, folliculotropic MF, pagetoid reticulosis, and granulomatous slack skin, each with characteristic clinical presentation, histopathological findings, and distinct clinical behaviors. SS is an aggressive leukemic variant of cutaneous lymphoma, and it is characterized by erythroderma, lymphadenopathy, and peripheral blood involvement by malignant cells. There is a wide range of dermatological manifestations of MF/SS, and prompt recognition is essential for early diagnosis. Skin biopsy for histopathology and immunohistochemical analysis is imperative to confirm the diagnosis of MF/SS. Histopathology may also provide information that may influence prognosis and treatment. Staging follows the TNMB system. Besides advanced stage, other factors associated with poorer prognosis are advanced age, male gender, folliculotropism in histopathology of patients with infiltrated plaques and tumors in the head and neck region, large cell transformation, and elevated lactate dehydrogenase. Treatment is divided into skin-directed therapies (topical treatments, phototherapy, radiotherapy), and systemic therapies (biological response modifiers, targeted therapies, chemotherapy). Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and extracorporeal photopheresis are other treatment modalities used in selected cases. This review discusses the main clinical characteristics, the histopathological/immunohistochemical findings, the staging system, and the therapeutic management of MF/SS.

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome (SS) is a rare and aggressive type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, with an abnormal inflammatory response in affected skin. The cytokines IL-1B and IL-18, as key signaling molecules in the immune system, are produced in an inactive form and cleave to the active form by inflammasomes. In this study, we assessed the skin, serum, peripheral mononuclear blood cell (PBMC) and lymph-node samples of SS patients and control groups (healthy donors (HDs) and idiopathic erythroderma (IE) nodes) to investigate the inflammatory markers IL-1B and IL-18 at the protein and transcript expression levels, as potential markers of inflammasome activation. Our findings showed increased IL-1B and decreased IL-18 protein expression in the epidermis of SS patients; however, in the dermis layer, we detected increased IL-18 protein expression. In the lymph nodes of SS patients at advanced stages of the disease (N2/N3), we also detected an enhancement of IL-18 and a downregulation of IL-1B at the protein level. Moreover, the transcriptomic analysis of the SS and IE nodes confirmed the decreased expression of IL1B and NLRP3, whereas the pathway analysis indicated a further downregulation of IL1B-associated genes. Overall, the present findings showed compartmentalized expressions of IL-1B and IL-18 and provided the first evidence of their imbalance in patients with Sézary syndrome.

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome is an aggressive leukemic variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, characterized by erythroderma, lymphadenopathy, and peripheral blood involvement by CD4+ malignant T-cells. The pathogenesis of Sézary syndrome is not fully understood. However, the course of the disease is strongly influenced by the tumor microenvironment, which is altered by a combination of cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors. The crosstalk between malignant and reactive cells affects the immunologic response against tumor cells causing immune dysregulation. This review focuses on the interaction of malignant Sézary cells and the tumor microenvironment.

RESUMO

Abstract Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders, characterized by infiltration of the skin by mature malignant T cells. Mycosis fungoides is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, accounting for more than 60% of cases. Mycosis fungoides in the early-stage is generally an indolent disease, progressing slowly from some patches or plaques to more widespread skin involvement. However, 20% to 25% of patients progress to advanced stages, with the development of skin tumors, extracutaneous spread and poor prognosis. Treatment modalities can be divided into two groups: skin-directed therapies and systemic therapies. Therapies targeting the skin include topical agents, phototherapy and radiotherapy. Systemic therapies include biological response modifiers, immunotherapies and chemotherapeutic agents. For early-stage mycosis fungoides, skin-directed therapies are preferred, to control the disease, improve symptoms and quality of life. When refractory or in advanced-stage disease, systemic treatment is necessary. In this article, the authors present a compilation of current treatment options for mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.

RESUMO

The delta-amino acid 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), is the precursor of the endogenous photosensitiser Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), and is currently approved for Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) of certain superficial cancers. However, ALA-PDT is not very effective in diseases in which T-cells play a significant role. Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) is a group of non-Hodgkin malignant diseases, which includes mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS). In previous work, we have designed new ALA esters synthesised by three-component Passerini reactions, and some of them showed higher performance as compared to ALA. This work aimed to determine the efficacy as pro-photosensitisers of five new ALA esters of 2-hydroxy-N-arylacetamides (1f, 1 g, 1 h, 1i and 1 k) of higher lipophilicity than ALA in Myla cells of MF and HuT-78 cells of SS. We have also tested its effectiveness against ALA and the already marketed ALA methyl ester (Me-ALA) and ALA hexyl ester (He-ALA). Both cell Myla and SS cells were effectively and equally photoinactivated by ALA-PDT. Besides, the concentration of ALA required to induce half the maximal porphyrin synthesis was 209 µM for Myla and 169 µM for HuT-78 cells. As a criterion of efficacy, we calculated the concentration of the ALA derivatives necessary to induce half the plateau porphyrin values obtained from ALA. These values were achieved at concentrations 4 and 12 times lower compared to ALA, according to the derivative used. For He-ALA, concentrations were 24 to 25 times lower than required for ALA for inducing comparable porphyrin synthesis in both CTCL cells. The light doses for inducing 50% of cell death (LD50) for He-ALA, 1f, 1 g, 1 h and 1i were around 18 and 25 J/cm2 for Myla and HuT-78 cells respectively, after exposure to 0.05 mM concentrations of the compounds. On the other hand, the LD50s for the compound 1 k were 40 and 57 J/cm2 for Myla and HuT-78, respectively. In contrast, 0.05 mM of ALA and Me-ALA did not provoke photokilling since the concentration employed was far below the porphyrin saturation point for these compounds. Our results suggest the potential use of ALA derivatives for topical application in PDT treatment of MF and extracorporeal PDT for the depletion of activated T-cells in SS.

RESUMO

AIM: The aim of this study was to assess treatment modalities, treatment response, toxicity profile, disease progression and outcomes in 14 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (PCTCL) treated with total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT). BACKGROUND: Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCLs) are extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas originating in the skin without evidence of extracutaneous disease at diagnosis. Despite advances in systemic and local therapy options, the management of advanced stages remains mostly palliative. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study of patients with PCTCL, diagnosed and treated in a reference center in Mexico City, analyzing treatment modalities, response to treatment, long-term outcome, and mortality. RESULTS: Eight males (57%) and 6 (43%) females were identified. Most patients were stage IVA (n = 5, 36%) followed by stage IB and IIB (28.5% and 21.4%, respectively). Eleven patients received the low-dose RT scheme (12 Gy), 1 patient, the intermediate-dose RT scheme (24 Gy), and 2 patients, the conventional-dose RT scheme (36 Gy). Mean follow-up time was 4.6 years. At first follow-up examination, 6-8 weeks after radiotherapy, the overall response rate (ORR) for the cohort was 85%. The median PFS for the whole cohort was 6 months. CONCLUSION: This study reinforces the role of TSEBT when compared with other treatment modalities and novel agents. Low-dose TSEBT is now widely used because of the opportunity for retreatment.

RESUMO

RESUMEN El síndrome de Sézary constituye la fase leucémica de la micosis fungoide caracterizado por eritrodermia, adenopatías superficiales y células atípicas en sangre. Predomina en los hombres con una proporción 2/1 respecto a las mujeres, y en las edades entre los 60 y 70 años de edad. La enfermedad es de difícil tratamiento, con un pronóstico reservado por su baja supervivencia. Por ser infrecuente y su posible similitud con otras dermatosis, se presenta un caso con antecedentes de psoriasis vulgar con 5 años de evolución, que hacía aproximadamente 6 meses, se encontraba sin mejoría en brote de agudización a pesar de los tratamientos indicados (AU).


ABSTRACT Sezary syndrome is the leukemic part of the fungoid mycosis, characterized by erythroderma, surface adenopathies and atypical cells in blood. It predominates in men with a 2/1 proportion in respect to women, and in ages ranging from 60 to 70 years. It is a difficult treated disease, with a reserved prognosis because of the low survival. Due to its infrequency and possible similarity to other dermatosis, it is presented a case with antecedents of vulgar psoriasis of 5 years evolution, without improvement for around 6 months, in acute outbreak in spite of the indicated treatments (AU).

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome (SS) is a leukemic variant of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), and the neoplastic CD4+ T cells of SS patients undergo intense clonal proliferation. Although Sézary cells have been studied extensively, studies on adaptive immunity regarding CD8+T cells are scarce. This study aimed to investigate activation marker expression in CD8+ T cells according to the differentiation stages and IL-7/IL7Rα axis responses of patients with SS. Moreover, this study aimed to verify the soluble forms of CD38, sCD127 and IL-7 in serum. Although the SS patients of our cohort had reduced numbers of CD8+ T cells, they exhibited higher percentages of CD8+CD38+ T cells, mainly effector/memory CD8+ T cells, than the control group. In contrast, down-regulated expression of the activation markers CD127/IL-7R and CD26 was found in the CD8+ T cells of SS patients. High serum levels of sCD38 and sCD127 and scarce serum levels of IL-7 were detected, emphasizing the immune activation status of SS patients. Moreover, CD8+ T cells from SS patients exhibited IL-7 unresponsiveness to STAT5 phosphorylation and Bcl-2 expression, and IL-7 priming partially restored IFNγ production. Our findings showed a chronic activation profile of CD8+ T cells, as an attenuated cytotoxic profile and impaired IL-7 responsiveness was observed, suggesting chronic activation status of CD8+ T cells in SS patients.

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome (SS), an aggressive and leukemic form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, usually results in shortened survival. Improving innate immunity in SS by targeting natural killer (NK) cells with Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists could be an interesting modulatory strategy. We evaluated the NK cell populations in SS patients assessing activating and inhibitory receptors expression and profiled the differential expression of TLR signaling pathway genes in unstimulated NK cells and after TLR7/8 stimulation. We observed preserved CD56bright NK cells and a low percentage of CD56dim NK cells in the peripheral blood of SS patients compared to those in the healthy control group. Both NK cell populations showed down-modulation of NKG2C and NKG2D expression, which was associated with high serum levels of the soluble form of NKG2D ligands. In contrast, an expansion of "memory" CD57+ NKG2C+ NK cells and high cytomegalovirus antibody titers were detected in SS patients. Profiling of the TLR signaling genes in NK cells from SS patients showed an abundance of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in NK cells in the unstimulated condition, with mostly up-regulation of NFκB/JNK p38 pathway genes, but there was down-regulation of type I (IFN-α/ß) and II (IFN-γ) interferon and IL-12A. After activation of NK cells with TLR7/8 agonist, the down-regulated genes correlated with the IFN response, and IL-12 became up-regulated, together with other antitumor factors. NK cell activation with a dual agonist for TLR7 and TLR8 is able to induce the expression of IFN-γ and type I IFN, which can improve immunity in SS patients.

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome (SS) carries a poor prognosis, and infections represent the most frequent cause of death in SS patients. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of innate immune receptors that induce protective immune responses against infections. We sought to evaluate the ability of TLR agonists to induce inflammatory cytokine, Th2 cytokine, and type I interferon (IFN-I) production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of untreated SS patients. We detected impaired IL-6, IL-10 and IL-13 secretion by PBMC induced by the agonists for TLR5, TLR3, TLR7 and TLR9 in SS patients, while it was partially recovered by TLR2/TLR4 and TLR7/8 agonists TNF secretion was restored following stimulation with TLR2/TLR4 agonists. IFN-γ was scarcely produced upon TLR activation in SS cells, albeit TLR 7/8 (CL097) enhanced their secretion at lower levels than the control group. TLR9 agonist efficiently induced IFN-I in SS patients, although this positive regulation was not observed for other cytokines, in direct contrast to the broad activity of CL097. Among the TLR agonists, TLR4 was able to induce pro-inflammatory, IL-10 and Th2 secretion, while TLR7-8 agonist induced the inflammatory cytokines, IFN-I and IFN-γ. These findings reveal a dysfunctional cytokine response upon both extracellular and intracellular TLR activation in SS patients, which was partially restored by TLRs agonists.

RESUMO

Abstract: Sézary syndrome is a primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma characterized by the triad of erythroderma, lymphadenopathy and circulating atypical cells. The emergence of new molecular targets has enabled the development of drugs such as alemtuzumab, an anti-CD52 monoclonal antibody, which has shown promising results in the treatment of this entity. We report the case of a 70-year-old male with refractory Sézary syndrome in whom treatment with alemtuzumab achieved an 80% skin lesion clearance with complete haematologic and radiologic response. The treatment was discontinued after 4 months due to adverse effects, with the patient showing a sustained response without disease progression after 13 months of follow-up.

RESUMO

Sézary syndrome (SS) is an unusually aggressive T- cell lymphoma characterized by the triad of erythroderma, the presence of more than 1,000 Sézary cells in peripheral blood and lymphadenopathies. It is accompanied by generalized pruritus and poor quality of life. The management of SS depends on its stage, patient comorbidities, and treatment availability. Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is the first line of treatment for patients with T-cell lymphomas in stage IVA1, IVA2 or SS. This treatment comprises three phases: leukapheresis, photoactivation and subsequent reinfusion of lymphocytes. As it is an immunomodulatory therapy it does not produce generalized immunosuppression. We report a 76 year-old male with SS stage IIIb initially treated with 12 sessions of ultraviolet phototherapy without response. After 10 well-tolerated sessions of ECP, itching and skin lesions eventually disappeared.

RESUMO

Los linfomas cutáneos primarios consisten en una proliferación anormal de linfocitos T o B que muestran tropismo por la piel, sin evidenciarse compromiso extra cutáneo al momento del diagnóstico. Se dividen en linfomas de células T (75 por ciento-80 por ciento) y linfomas de células B (20 por ciento-25 por ciento). La micosis fungoide es una neoplasia de estirpe T y constituye el linfoma cutáneo primario más frecuente. Su presentación clínica clásica consiste en 3 etapas: parche, placa y tumor. Sin embargo, tiene múltiples variantes y un amplio diagnóstico diferencial, por lo que para su diagnóstico se requiere una estricta correlación entre la clínica y la histopatología. El síndrome de Sézary, por su parte, es considerado la variante leucémica de los linfomas cutáneos primarios y forma parte del diagnóstico diferencial de las eritrodermias. En esta revisión profundizaremos en los principales aspectos de la clínica, histopatología, criterios diagnósticos y tratamiento de la micosis fungoide y el síndrome de Sézary.


Primary cutaneous lymphomas represent an abnormal proliferation of T or B-cells with skin-homing ability, with no evidence of extra cutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. They are divided in T-cell lymphomas (75 percent-80 percent) and B-cell lymphomas (20 percent-25percent). Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a T-cell malignancy, being the most common lymphoma. Classic MF presents 3 clinical phases: patch, plaque and tumor stage. However, it has numerous variants and a wide range of differential diagnosis, so that precise clinicopathologic correlation is necessary for make a correct diagnosis. Sézary syndrome is an aggressive leukemic primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma variant and it is part of the spectrum of erythroderma. In this review we will analyze the main aspects about clinical presentation, histopathology, diagnosis and treatment of mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.

RESUMO

Bajo el término linfoma cutáneo de células T (LCCT) se agrupa una serie de enfermedades que tienen en común la presencia de un clon maligno de células T y la afectación de la piel. La micosis fungoide (MF) es la forma más común de LCCT, seguida por el síndrome de Sèzary (SS). La causa definitiva de la MF es desconocida. El inmunofenotipo de la mayoría de los casos de MF es de células T de memoria CD3+CD4+CD45RO+CLA+CD8-. Los linfocitos T CD4+ malignos migran hasta la epidermis y se localizan alrededor de las células de Langerhans (LC). En el SS las células pierden el epidermotropismo e infiltran extensamente la dermis, la sangre y otros tejidos; estas células presentan un inmunofenotipo predominante de células T neoplásicas CD3+CD4+CD8-CD7-CD26- CD158k+CD94-. El perfil Th2 y la supresión de respuestas Th1 son dos factores críticos en la progresión de la enfermedad. Se han evaluado muy poco las alteraciones en la regulación inmune en el LCCT. Un mejor entendimiento de la función de las células T y de la inmunobiología de los LCCT permitiría mejorar el pronóstico, el tratamiento y el seguimiento de los pacientes con estas neoplasias.


The term cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) refers to several diseases that have in common the presence of a malignant T-cell clone with involvement of the skin. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of CTCL, followed by the Sèzary syndrome (SS). The cause of mycosis fungoides is unknown. Immunophenotype of most cases of MF is made up by memory T cells CD3+CD4+CD45RO+CLA+CD8-. Malignant T CD4+ lymphocytes migrate to the epidermis and localize around Langerhans cells. In SS, cells loose their epidermotropism and extensively infiltrate the dermis, blood and other tissues. These cells present a predominant immunophenotype of neoplasic T cells CD3+CD4+CD8-CD7-CD26-CD158k+CD94-. The Th2 profile and the supression of Th1 responses are two critical factors in the progression of the disease. Alterations in the immune regulation in CTCL have not been thoroughly evaluated. A better understanding of T-cell function and of the immunobiology of CTCL would allow to improve the prognosis, therapy and follow-up of patients with these neoplasias.

RESUMO

La micosis fungoides y el síndrome de Sezary están constituidos por un grupo de linfomas no Hodgkin indolentes, extranodales, con origen en linfocitos T; afectan la piel de manera primaria; son generalmente incurables y los pacientes tienen mal pronóstico porque la enfermedad es habitualmente refractaria a diversas modalidades terapéuticas. El trasplante de médula ósea alogénico es una opción terapéutica más. La alta mortalidad del acondicionamiento pretrasplante convencional ha hecho que se considere el trasplante alogénico con acondicionamiento de intensidad reducida como una opción viable para esta enfermedad. Se presenta el caso de una paciente con micosis fungoides a quien se hizo un trasplante hematopoyético con un esquema no mieloablativo y en quien se logró remisión completa sostenida de la enfermedad.


Sezary syndrome (SS) and mycosis fungoides (MF) are a group of non Hodgkin lymphomas that originate from T-lymphocytes and involve mostly the skin. These entities are generally non treatable and patient prognosis remains poor even with the advent of current treatment schedules. Complete remissions are seldom observed. For this reason, bone marrow transplant has been used as a treatment option. The high mortality associated with this procedure has turned reduced intensity conditioning stem cell transplant into a treatment option. This case study illustrates how stem cell transplant offers complete remission of this type of lymphomas.
