Mycosis fungoides is recognized as an indolent cutaneous malignant T-cell lymphoma. In contrast, there are few therapeutic options for advanced forms of mycosis fungoides. Since immunotherapy is desirable as an alternative therapeutic option, identifying candidate molecules is an important goal for clinicians. Although tumor-derived negative immunomodulatory molecules, such as PD-1/PD-L1, have been identified in various malignancies, the useful positive immunological drivers of mycosis fungoides are largely unknown. We found that the stimulator of interferon (IFN) genes (STING) was highly upregulated in early-stage mycosis fungoides. Immunohistochemical examination revealed different STING staining patterns in patients with mycosis fungoides. Although there were no significant differences in clinical factors’ characteristics, STING expression was associated with the survival of patients with mycosis fungoides. The survival rate was significantly poor in patients with low STING-expressing mycosis fungoides. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that low STING expression was associated with an increased hazard ratio. Our results indicate that STING expression independently influences the prognosis of mycosis fungoides.
