    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) as Determined by the Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities
    Number of patients with Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT). A DLT is an adverse event that determined the treatment dose level was not tolerable for that patient in Cycle 1.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Number of Participants Who Responded to Treatment
    Disease burden as assessed by the pre-specified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (SWAT) measurement. A Response is defined as equal to or greater than 50% improvement in SWAT score. SWAT Score is determined by the Lesions classified as patch, plaque, or tumor. The sum of percent of total body surface area (%TBSA) by lesion type is derived and multiplied by a factor of 1 (for patch), 2 (for plaque), or 4 (for tumor). The skin score total is derived by summing the skin score subtotals for patches, plaques and tumors. The skin score total is dimensionless and can range from 0 to 400
