Mode-of-action of HDAC inhibitor resminostat in CTCL

Cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by malignant skin-homing T cells with an increasing bias towards the T helper cell type 2 (Th2) during disease progression. Patients with advance CTCL have a high disease burden and the majority of CTCL patients suffer from severe itching (pruritus). A key challenge in the treatment of advanced CTCL is to maintain and to stabilize initial therapeutic responses after systemic treatment. Addressing this clinical need, the oral class I, IIb, IV HDAC inhibitor resminostat is currently under clinical evaluation for disease control after systemic therapy (RESMAIN, NCT02953301).
