An multicenter open label phase II study to assess the efficiency and safety of APO866 in the treatment patients with refractory or relapsed cutaneous T-cell lymphoma - APO866 for CTC

• Conditions: Primary cutaneous lymphomas are non-Hodgkin lymphomas that present to the skin without evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. It refers to either to cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) or cutaneous B-cell lymphoma (CBCL). The primary cutaneous lymphomas are classified according to the WHO-EORTC classification. CTCL constitutes about 65% of all primary cutaneous lymphomas, of which mycosis fungoides is the most prevalent clinical presentation.; MedDRA version: 8.1Level: PTClassification code 10028483
