The primary endpoint was the overall response rate.RESULTS: Fifteen of 18 patients with stage IIB-IV MF or SS were heavily pretreated with a median of 4 prior systemic therapies. The overall response rate was 88.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 65.3-98.6), with 3 complete responses (16.9%; 95% CI, 3.6-41.4). At a median follow-up period of 13 months, the median time to next treatment (TTNT) was 12 months (95% CI, 8.2-15.8), and the median progression-free survival was 8 months (95% CI, 2-14). A significant reduction in the modified severity-weighted assessment tool, total Skindex-29 score (Bonferroni-corrected P < .005), and all subdomains (Bonferroni-corrected P < .05) was observed after TSEBT. Half of the irradiated patients (n = 9) developed grade 2 acute and subacute toxicities. One patient had confirmed grade 3 acute toxicity. Chronic grade 1 toxicity has been observed in 33% of patients. Patients with erythroderma/SS or prior radiation therapy appear at higher risk of skin toxicities.CONCLUSIONS: TSEBT with 8 Gy in 2 fractions achieves good disease control and symptom palliation with acceptable toxicity, greater convenience, and fewer hospital visits.",
