    Advanced cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) include mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, characterized by aggressive behavior and treatment response variability.

  • 2

    Three molecular subtypes of advanced CTCL were identified: intracellular signaling, metabolic, and extracellular matrix remodeling, each with distinct clinical phenotypes.

  • 3

    The PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway was upregulated in the intracellular signaling subtype, with phospho-AKT levels linked to response to PI3Kδ inhibitor therapy.

  • 4

    Potential biomarkers for predicting treatment responsiveness include CTSB, GSTO1, and WDFY4, while GOLGA1 and STIP1 may indicate disease progression.

  • 5

    The study provides preliminary evidence of molecular differences in advanced CTCL, which may correlate with clinical characteristics and require further validation.
