Summary

This study tests whether adding a topical immune-stimulating cream (imiquimod) to standard local radiation therapy can improve treatment of mycosis fungoides, a rare skin lymphoma. About 25 adults with early-stage disease who have not responded to at least one prior therapy will receive the cream for a week before radiation to prime the immune system. The main goals are to check safety and measure skin disease response at 8 weeks.
