Outcomes for patients with advanced-stage disease are suboptimal, as few complete and durable responses are achieved with currently available therapeutic agents. However, improved understanding of oncogenic transcriptional programs in malignant T cells and their engagement with the tumor microenvironment (TME) may unveil therapeutic vulnerabilities. Therefore, we have compiled the largest available scRNA-seq CTCL atlas that includes >2 million skin and blood cells from 116 patients. We identified recurrent transcriptional programs in malignant T cells, a subset of which are associated with GATA-3 dependent transcriptional programs, especially in the setting of large cell transformation and advanced-stage disease. Many of the transcriptional programs identified are therapeutically targetable with clinically available agents, including HDAC, XPO1, JAK/CSF1R, and IKZF1/IKZF3 antagonists. The CTCL TME is dominated by infiltrating and exhausted effector and cytotoxic T cells that are restrained by a robust infiltrate of regulatory T cells (8%), transcriptionally polarized monocytes/macrophages (7%), and cancer-associated fibroblasts. Collectively, these findings have significant implications for the rationale design of combinatorial strategies targeting immune checkpoints, including PD-1. We have identified transcriptional programs, driven by oncogenic transcription factors, and constituents of the TME as therapeutic vulnerabilities in CTCL, and hope that the CTCL atlas constructed will provide a valuable resource for future studies exploiting these therapeutic vulnerabilities.","dates":{"publication":"2026/06/10"},"accession":"GSE309807","cross_references":{"GSM":["GSM9282492","GSM9282491"],"GPL":["34284"],"GSE":["309807"],"taxon":["Homo sapiens"]}}
