This study is being conducted to identify how much and how often pralatrexate, given with vitamin B12 and folic acid, can be given safely to patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) that has relapsed (returned after responding to previous treatment) or is refractory (has not responded to previous treatment). It is also being conducted to get information on whether or not pralatrexate is effective in treating relapsed or refractory CTCL.
This is a Phase 1, single-arm, open-label, multi-center study designed to determine an effective and well-tolerated dose and schedule of pralatrexate when administered concurrently with vitamin B12 and folic acid supplementation to patients with relapsed or refractory CTCL. The start of study treatment is defined as the initiation of pralatrexate. A patient may begin pralatrexate, provided he/she has methylmalonic acid (MMA) serum concentrations \< 200 nmol/L and homocysteine (Hcy) concentrations \< 10 μmol/L at screening. If a patient has elevated MMA and/or Hcy concentrations, vitamin supplementation will be initiated at least 10 days prior to pralatrexate initiation. Once the patient is on study, the dosing of vitamin supplementation must adhere to the schedule defined by the protocol. Vitamin supplementation will consist of vitamin BB12 1 mg intramuscular (IM) every (q) 8-10 weeks, and folic acid 1 mg by mouth (PO) once a day (QD).

1 mg intramuscular injection Administered at least 10 days prior to start of pralatrexate if patient has elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA) and/or homocysteine(Hcy) levels. Administered every 8-10 weeks throughout the study and for at least 30 days after last dose of pralatrexate.
1 mg orally Administered at least 10 days prior to start of pralatrexate if patient has elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA) and/or homocysteine(Hcy) levels. Administered daily throughout the study and for at least 30 days after last dose of pralatrexate.
Intravenous (IV) push over 3-5 minutes into a patent IV line containing normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride). Pralatrexate will be administered via intravenous (IV) push over 3-5 minutes. The frequency of pralatrexate will be administered weekly for 3 or

Determine an Effective and Well-tolerated Dose and Schedule of Pralatrexate with Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid Supplementation for Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL)
Response rate was used as the primary measure of efficacy during the process of identifying a well-tolerated and effective dosing regimen of pralatrexate in patients with relapsed/refractory CTCL. Duration of response was defined as the number of days between the date of first tumor response assessment of objective response (CR, CRu, or PR, whichever was recorded first) and the first date that recurrent disease or PD was objectively documented or death.
Time frame: Assessed at the end of every even-numbered cycle (every 8 weeks) for the first 6 months, then every 4 cycles (16 weeks)
Characterize the Safety Profile of Pralatrexate in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory CTCL.
The safety analysis set included all patients who received at least 1 dose of pralatrexate. In order to be considered evaluable in the dose-finding phase of the study, patients must have (a) either experienced a DLT or (b) received all planned doses within the first cycle. Patients who terminated from the study prior to completion of cycle 1 for reasons other than DLTs were replaced.
Time frame: Assessed at all study visits: weekly while on treatment and at safety follow-up (35 +/- 5 days post-last dose) or early termination visit (at time of withdrawal)
