Safety and Efficacy of Nitrogen Mustard in Treatment of Mycosis Fungoides

The successful use of mechlorethamine (MCH) as a topical agent in the treatment of mycosis fungoides, a form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, was first reported in the late 1950s, and provided a rationale for skin-directed chemotherapy that minimized systemic toxicity. Since then, multiple investigators have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of topically applied MCH in the treatment of mycosis fungoides. This study will evaluate the efficacy (non-inferiority), tolerability and safety of topical application of MCH proprietary gel versus a compounded ointment formulation in Aquaphor in patients with stage I or IIA MF.
