Argumentaire pour une utilisation plus large de la photochimiothĂ©rapie extracorporelle chez lâenfant
International audienceThe management of immune diseases in children remains challenging , although significant advances have been made. In addition to pharmacological approaches, extracorporeal photochemotherapy (ECP) is distinctive in its ability to provide immunomodulation without immune suppression or toxicity. However, in practice, this therapy is not widely used because of logistical issues and the lack of robust clinical pediatric studies. Here, we discuss the potential clinical applications of ECP in children and emphasize the need for a rigorous and specifically pediatric clinical evaluation of ECP. à 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Résumé Malgré l'apport des biothérapies, le traitement des maladies dysim-munitaires sévÚres et des conflits allogéniques de l'enfant reste difficile et entaché de nombreuses complications. Dans ce contexte, la photo-chimiothérapie extracorporelle (PCE) (thérapie cellulaire qui repose sur l'effet immunomodulateur des cellules mononucléées du patient, prélevées par aphérÚse et exposées ex vivo aux rayons ultraviolets A [UVA] en présence de psoralÚne) a l'avantage notable d'induire une tolérance immunitaire sans générer d'immunosuppression systémique ni de toxicité a ` court, moyen ou long terme. Cette immunomodulation fait intervenir notamment la génération de lymphocytes T régulateurs (T reg). Malgré cela, la PCE est peu utilisée en raison de ses contraintes logistiques et du manque de données cliniques. Nous proposons une revue des indications reconnues et potentielles de la PCE en pédiatrie. Nous insistons sur la nécessité d'une e Žvaluation clinique spécifique a ` l'enfant qui ne peut se concevoir sans la participation active des cliniciens pédiatres en particulier dans le domaine de la transplanta-tion et des maladies auto-immunes et inflammatoires

Effectiveness of mogamulizumab in patients with Mycosis Fungoides or SĂ©zary syndrome. A multicentre, retrospective, realâworld French study
International audienceBackground: Efficacy and safety of mogamulizumab, a monoclonal antibody directed against C-C chemokine receptor 4, were demonstrated in a previous multinational clinical trial conducted in patients with previously treated cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL): Sézary syndrome (SS) or Mycosis Fungoides (MF).Objectives: The real-world French OMEGA study aimed to describe effectiveness and tolerability of mogamulizumab in adult patients with CTCL, overall and according to the disease (SS or MF).Methods: In this retrospective study, patients treated with mogamulizumab for SS or MF were included from 14 French expert centres. The overall response rate (ORR) under treatment was described (primary criterion), as well as treatment use and safety data.Results: The 122 analysed patients (69 SS, 53 MF) were aged 66.6 ± 12.1 years at mogamulizumab initiation, and their median disease duration was 2.5 years (IQR: 1.3-5.6). Prior to treatment start, they received a median of three systemic CTCL therapies (2-5). Overall, 77.8% of patients suffered from advanced disease (Stage IIB-IVB), with frequent blood (B1/B2) involvement (67.5%). Over the treatment period (median: 4.6 months, 2.1-7.2), 96.7% of patients received all the planned mogamulizumab infusions. Among the 109 patients evaluable for effectiveness, ORR was 58.7% (95% CI [48.9-68.1]) overall, 69.5% [56.1-80.8] in SS and 46.0% [31.8-60.7] in MF. Compartmental response in the blood was observed in 81.8% [69.1-90.9] of SS patients. Skin responses were observed in 57.0% [47.0-66.5] of patients overall, 66.7% [52.9-78.6] in SS and 46.0% [31.8-60.7] in MF. The most common serious adverse drug reactions were rash (8.1% of patients) and infusion-related reactions (2.4%) which led to treatment discontinuation in 7.3% and 0.8% of patients, respectively. One patient with SS died from mogamulizumab-related tumour lysis syndrome.Conclusions: This large French study confirmed the effectiveness and tolerability of mogamulizumab in SS and MF patients in routine medical practice
