Aprepitant improves refractory pruritus in primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas: experience of the Spanish Working Group on Cutaneous Lymphomas

Abstract

Aprepitant has shown a promising anti-itch activity in several cases of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs)^1-8. We sought to determine its antipruritic efficacy in a large multicenter series of CTCLs patients with refractory pruritus and, secondarily, to define possible clinical predictors of response.A retrospective, analytical review of the Spanish Working Group on Cutaneous Lymphoma database was designed to collect patients with CTCLs and refractory pruritus, treated with aprepitant from 2009 to 2013.
