| Overall Response Rate | at the end of cycle 1 (26-28 days), and then every other cycle in Year 1 (cycle 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13), and every 16 weeks (cycle 17, 21, etc.) in Year 2 and beyond until progression up to 36 months | The ORR was defined as the count of subjects who had a confirmed CR or PR, defined as documented CR or PR per Global Composite Response Score that was confirmed by a subsequent observation at least 4 weeks later. Overall Response Rate was determined based on the response in all compartments (lymph nodes, skin, peripheral blood, and viscera), referencing Olsen, 2011 as follows: Complete Response (CR) = complete disappearance of all clinical evidence of disease; Partial Response (PR) = regression of measurable disease; Stable Disease (SD) = failure to attain CR, PR, or PD; Progressive Disease (PD) = PD in any compartment; Relapse = recurrence of disease in prior CR in any compartment. |
| Quality of Life (QoL) Assessment - Skindex-29 Symptoms Scale Score | Cycle 1, 3, and 5 | * Skindex-29 rates 29 items assessing 3 domains (emotions, symptoms, & functioning) on a linear scale from 0 (never) to all the time (100). Higher scores = higher impact of skin disease. * FACT-G rates 27 items in 4 domains (physical well-being, social/family well-being, emotional well-being, functional well-being) on a 5-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Higher scores = better QoL. * EuroQoL lvl 3 (Eq-5D-3L) rates mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression on 3 levels - no problems, some problems, extreme problems. Score is calculated using a set of item weights to derive a single score ranging from -0.109 to 1, with 1 representing full health. LS mean (and 95% CI) of the overall change from baseline across time points through 6-month assessment (including End of Cycles 1, 3, and 5 time points only) are calculated from MMRM with treatment, disease type, disease stage, and region as fixed effects and baseline score as a covariate. |
| Pruritis Evaluation | Cycle 1, 3, and 5 | The Itchy QoL is a validated pruritus specific quality of life instrument. It includes 22 pruritus-specific questions covering three major domains: symptoms, functioning, and emotions. The scale ranges from Never (1) to All The Time (5). The subscale scores consist of the average of the responses to the items in a given subscale. The overall score is the average of the responses to all items. Higher Itchy QoL scores indicate worse quality of life. LS mean (and 95% CI) of the overall change from baseline across time points through 6-month assessment (including End of Cycles 1, 3, and 5 time points only) are calculated from MMRM with treatment, disease type, disease stage, and region as fixed effects and baseline score as a covariate. |

Overall Response Rate
The ORR was defined as the count of subjects who had a confirmed CR or PR, defined as documented CR or PR per Global Composite Response Score that was confirmed by a subsequent observation at least 4 weeks later. Overall Response Rate was determined based on the response in all compartments (lymph nodes, skin, peripheral blood, and viscera), referencing Olsen, 2011 as follows: Complete Response (CR) = complete disappearance of all clinical evidence of disease; Partial Response (PR) = regression of measurable disease; Stable Disease (SD) = failure to attain CR, PR, or PD; Progressive Disease (PD) = PD in any compartment; Relapse = recurrence of disease in prior CR in any compartment.
Time frame: at the end of cycle 1 (26-28 days), and then every other cycle in Year 1 (cycle 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13), and every 16 weeks (cycle 17, 21, etc.) in Year 2 and beyond until progression up to 36 months
Population: The total number of patients analyzed are further broken out by disease type \[mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sezary Syndrome (SS)\]

Pruritis Evaluation
The Itchy QoL is a validated pruritus specific quality of life instrument. It includes 22 pruritus-specific questions covering three major domains: symptoms, functioning, and emotions. The scale ranges from Never (1) to All The Time (5). The subscale scores consist of the average of the responses to the items in a given subscale. The overall score is the average of the responses to all items. Higher Itchy QoL scores indicate worse quality of life. LS mean (and 95% CI) of the overall change from baseline across time points through 6-month assessment (including End of Cycles 1, 3, and 5 time points only) are calculated from MMRM with treatment, disease type, disease stage, and region as fixed effects and baseline score as a covariate.
Time frame: Cycle 1, 3, and 5
Population: The number of participants analyzed were subjects with values at baseline and post-baseline.

* Skindex-29 rates 29 items assessing 3 domains (emotions, symptoms, & functioning) on a linear scale from 0 (never) to all the time (100). Higher scores = higher impact of skin disease. * FACT-G rates 27 items in 4 domains (physical well-being, social/family well-being, emotional well-being, functional well-being) on a 5-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Higher scores = better QoL. * EuroQoL lvl 3 (Eq-5D-3L) rates mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression on 3 levels - no problems, some problems, extreme problems. Score is calculated using a set of item weights to derive a single score ranging from -0.109 to 1, with 1 representing full health. LS mean (and 95% CI) of the overall change from baseline across time points through 6-month assessment (including End of Cycles 1, 3, and 5 time points only) are calculated from MMRM with treatment, disease type, disease stage, and region as fixed effects and baseline score as a covariate.
Time frame: Cycle 1, 3, and 5
Population: The number of subjects analyzed in each row is the number of subjects with values at baseline and the specified post-baseline timepoint.
