Effect of leucovorin administration on mucositis and skin reactions in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma or cutaneous T-cell lymphoma treated with pralatrexate.
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) are rare, heterogeneous non-Hodgkin lymphomas with poor prognoses. Pralatrexate has demonstrated efficacy in T-cell lymphomas; however, mucositis has been reported as the most common dose-modifying adverse event. Leucovorin has been shown to minimize mucositis incidence, without sacrificing pralatrexate efficacy. We retrospectively studied 34 patients (7-PTCL/27-CTCL) treated with pralatrexate alone or pralatrexate and leucovorin. Leucovorin was administered preemptively prior to any mucositis occurrence. Pralatrexate dosing ranged from 10-30 mg/m Topics: Adult; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Aminopterin; Female; Humans; Leucovorin; Lymphoma, T-Cell, Cutaneous; Lymphoma, T-Cell, Peripheral; Male; Middle Aged; Mucositis; Neoplasm Staging; Premedication; Retrospective Studies; Skin Diseases; Treatment Outcome | 2019 |
