Notes

Defines "B" component of TNMB staging in MF/Sézary. B2 (≥1000 Sézary cells/μL) is the leukemic stage = Sézary syndrome by definition; up- stages disease to IVA1 regardless of skin stage. Qualifies for systemic-first therapy and especially for mogamulizumab (highest efficacy in B2). Distinguished from reactive lymphocytosis by clonal TCR (TEST-TCR-CLONALITY) + aberrant flow phenotype.
