Active Comparator: SGX301
Three treatment cycles, each six (6) weeks followed by a two (2) week rest period. Treatment uses 0.25% SGX301 in USP Hydrophilic Ointment (or placebo) applied twice per week followed by fluorescent light therapy. Cycle 1: Patients randomized 2:1 to active/placebo will have three (3) index lesions treated and evaluated. Cycle 2: All patients will have three (3) index lesions treated and evaluated with active SGX301 ointment. Cycle 3: All patients will be given the opportunity to enter an open-label cycle of active SGX301 ointment treatment for all lesions (index and non-index). |
Drug: SGX301 (synthetic hypericin)
0.25% SGX301 in USP Hydrophilic Ointment applied twice per week, covered by opaque bandage for 12-24 hours, then treated with an initial dose of 5 J/cm^2 fluorescent light.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Placebo ointment is indistinguishable from ointment containing active SGX301 and is only used in Cycle 1. Treatment paradigm (ointment application and fluorescent light therapy) is identical.
|
Drug: Placebo
USP Hydrophilic Ointment applied twice per week, covered by opaque bandage for 12-24 hours, then treated with an initial dose of 5 J/cm^2 fluorescent light. |
Primary Outcome Measures :
- Treatment Response in 3 treated lesions as defined as a ≥50% improvement in the Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score when compared to patients receiving placebo [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ]To evaluate the ability of a 6-week course of SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL, mycosis fungoides) to induce a treatment response in 3 lesions when compared to patients receiving placebo and visible light.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Complete Response in 3 treated lesions as defined to be a Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score of 0 [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ]To evaluate the ability of topical SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase CTCL to induce biopsy-proven Complete Response.
- Degree of Improvement of 3 treated lesions as measured by the Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]To evaluate the degree of improvement of the lesions induced by topical SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase CTCL.
- Duration of Response as measured monthly for 6 months by the appearance of new lesions after the treatment period has ended [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]To evaluate the duration of Partial and/or Complete Response in the lesions induced by topical SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase CTCL.
- Time to Relapse as measured by any disease recurrence in participants with a Complete Response [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]To evaluate the time to lesion relapse induced by topical SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase CTCL.
- Safety as assessed by the number of participants with Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]To assess the safety of topical SGX301 and visible light in patients with patch/plaque phase CTCL.
