The current study assessed the long-term tolerability of pralatrexate alone or in combination with oral bexarotene in the treatment of 10 responding individuals with advanced-stage relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides (MF). The median duration of response was 26.75 weeks. The study demonstrated that pralatrexate alone or in combination with oral bexarotene is well tolerated and capable of producing long-term responses. Background: This study aimed to assess the long-term tolerability of pralatrexate alone or in combination with oral bexarotene for relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides (MF). Patients and Methods: Patients with MF in this report were participants in 1 of 2 multicenter trials. During the dose-ranging phase I/II study, participants were treated with pralatrexate alone for 3 of 4 weeks. During a second phase I/II dose-ranging combination trial, participants were treated with pralatrexate at 15 mg/m(2)/wk for 3 of 4 weeks combined with 150 to 300 mg/m(2) of daily oral bexarotene. Results: Twenty-six patients were enrolled at our center, including 12 receiving pralatrexate and 14 receiving pralatrexate plus bexarotene. Four of 12 patients (33%) treated with pralatrexate alone responded. Of 14 patients treated with bexarotene plus pralatrexate, 7 (50%) responded. Ten participants, with a median age of 71 years (range, 41-82 years), received more than 9 cycles of pralatrexate, including 3 receiving pralatrexate and 7 receiving combination therapy. Median time to response was 15.75 weeks (range, 4-24 weeks), and the median duration of response was 26.75 weeks (range, 8.5-49.5 weeks). The most common adverse event (AE) was mucositis in 8 (80%) patients. Other AEs of any grade included arthralgias (n = 1), headache (n = 1), neutropenia (n = 5), and skin necrosis (n = 2). Two patients initially had lower leg tumors that responded to therapy, leaving residual chronic leg ulcers. Conclusion: Pralatrexate alone or in combination with low-dose oral bexarotene is well tolerated and capable of providing long-term responses in patients of advanced age with advanced-stage MF.
