Cutaneous lymphoma

Description

Cutaneous lymphomas are rare cancers whose study requires a widely-distributed, multidisciplinary network.
EORTC’s research in this field benefits greatly from our multi-centre, pluridisciplinary infrastructure. We focus on testing new agents in collaboration with industry and translational researchers, but also look at prospective research for prognostic index development.

Main Achievements

EORTC studies in this field have defined the clinicopathological characteristics of distinct types of cutaneous lymphomas. These studies have supported the establishment of standard of care treatments, and were instrumental in updating the WHO classification for cutaneous lymphomas More information

We published EORTC consensus recommendations for the treatment of mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome in the 2007 European Journal of Oncology (more information) and these were updated in 2017

We collaborated with other International Lymphoma Organisations (International Society of Cutaneous Lymphoma; ISCL) to produce Consensus Recommendations for the treatment of primary cutaneous CD30 positive T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders, published in Blood Journal in 2012 More information. The recommendations also revised the staging and classification of both mycosis fungoides, Sezary syndrome and other non-mycosis fungoides primary cutaneous lymphomas (all published in Blood Journal in 2007) More information
