Study summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether resminostat will be able to delay or prevent worsening of disease in patients with advanced stage mycosis fungoides or Sézary Syndrome that have recently achieved disease control with previous systemic therapy.

Eligibility criteria

Main Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with confirmed MF (Stage IIB-IVB) or SS in an ongoing complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) after at least one prior systemic therapy according to local standards (including but not limited to α-interferon, bexarotene, total skin electron beam irradiation, chemotherapy) [the most recent systemic therapy must have been completed as planned or stopped due to unacceptable toxicity 2-12 weeks prior to randomisation]
  • (ECOG) status score 0-2
  • Adequate haematological, hepatic and renal function

Main Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with progressive disease (PD)
  • Baseline (QTc) interval > 500 milliseconds
  • Concurrent use of any other specific anti-tumour therapy including psoralen photo chemotherapy (PUVA), chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiation therapy, or experimental medications
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. PFS (Progression-free survival)

    The primary objective is to determine if maintenance treatment with resminostat increases progression free survival (PFS) compared to placebo in patients with advanced stage (Stage IIB-IVB) MF or SS that have achieved disease control (complete response \[CR\], partial response \[PR\] or stable disease \[SD\]) with previous systemic therapy.

    Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to approximately 32 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. TTSW (Time to symptom worsening): pruritus

    To determine if maintenance treatment with resminostat increases time to symptom (pruritus) worsening (TTSW) compared to placebo.

    Time frame: From date of randomisation to first date that criteria for symptom (pruritus) worsening have been met, up to approximately 32 months. Symptom worsening is defined as an increase of a minimum of 3 points on the visual analogue itching scale

Other outcomes

  1. TTP (Time to progression)

    Compare time to progression (TTP) in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression, up to approximately 32 months

  2. TTNT (Time to next treatment)

    Compare time to next treatment (TTNT) in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: From date of randomisation to first date that new treatment is received, up to approximately 44 months.

  3. PFS2, PFS3 (Progression-free survival 2, 3)

    Assess the effect of maintenance treatment with resminostat by means of PFS of subsequent treatments (PFS2, PFS3)

    Time frame: From date of start of subsequent treatment to date of progression or death due to any cause in the absence of documented PD whilst receiving second and third line therapy, respectively, up to approximately 44 months

  4. ORR (Overall response rate)

    Compare overall response rate (ORR, including CR, PR) in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: Percent of patients within each treatment Arm that achieve confirmed CR or PR relative to the number of patients belonging to the analysis population of interest, up to approximately 32 months.

  5. DOR (Duration of response)

    Compare duration of response (DOR) in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: From date confirmed CR or PR (whichever is first) until the criteria for PD have been met, up to approximately 32 months.

  6. OS (Overall survival)

    Compare overall survival (OS) in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: From the day of randomisation to death from any cause, up to approximately 44 months.

  7. Incidence of treatment-related AEs and SAEs (Safety and tolerability)

    Assess the safety and tolerability of resminostat

    Time frame: Weekly for 3 cycles, then bi-weekly during treatment phase, up to approximately 9 months

  8. HrQoL (Health related quality of life)

    Compare changes in health related quality of life (HrQoL) parameters in patients when treated with resminostat vs placebo

    Time frame: Every 28 days, up to approximately 32 months

  9. Maximum Plasma Concentration [Cmax]

    Assess the maximum plasma concentration \[Cmax\] of resminostat and metabolites

    Time frame: At Cycle 3, Day 1 at 0.75h, 2h and 4 h after intake of trial medication / at Cycle 3, Day 5 to be done pre-dose and at 2h and 7h after intake of trial medication

  10. Area Under the Curve [AUC]

    Assess the Area Under the Curve \[AUC\] of resminostat and metabolites

    Time frame: At Cycle 3, Day 1 at 0.75h, 2h and 4 h after intake of trial medication / at Cycle 3, Day 5 to be done pre-dose and at 2h and 7h after intake of trial medication

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Nov 2016 to primary completion in Mar 2023, 76 months.

Of 42 phase 2 interventional studies under Mycosis Fungoides, half reached primary completion within 64 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 39 and three quarters within 111. This study's 76 months is above that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 30, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
