2. Impaired cardiac function

3. Concomitant use of drugs with a risk of causing torsades de pointes

4. Participants who have received chemotherapy or any investigational drug or undergone major surgery = 3 weeks prior to starting study drug or who have not recovered from side effects of such therapy

5. Less than 3 months since prior electron beam therapy

6. Women who are pregnant or breast feeding, or women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) not willing to use a double method of contraception during the study and 3 months after the end of treatment. Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Overall Response Rate (ORR) in Participants With Resistant Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Treated With Oral Panobinostat by Using the Modified Severity-Weighted Assessment Tool (mSWAT)	ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with best overall response (OR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on mSWAT score, (OR = CR + PR). mSWAT score represents the product of the percentage total body surface area (%TBSA) involvement of each lesion type (patch, plaque, and tumor or ulceration), multiplied by a weighting factor: modified SWAT score = (patch %TBSA x 1) + (plaque %TBSA x 2) + (tumor or ulcer %TBSA x 4). The sum of these 3 numbers gave the modified SWAT score, on a 0 (no lesions) to 400 (lesions covering all areas) scale. CR based on mSWAT score was defined as the absence of skin disease. PR was defined as = 50% decrease of the modified SWAT score compared to the Baseline score.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Response Rate of Participants With Refractory CTCL Using the Physician's Global Assessment of Clinical Condition (PGA)	Response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with CR or PR based on PGA scale. PGA is a 7-point grading scale for the investigator's assessment of the overall extent of improvement or worsening of the participant's disease as compared to Baseline. CR corresponds to Grade 0 (Completely clear) on PGA scale and was defined as no evidence of disease; 100% improvement. PR corresponds to Grade 2 (marked improvement) on PGA scale and was defined as significant improvement (=75% - <90%); some evidence of disease remains.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Response Rate in Participants With Refractory CTCL Using Modified Skin Score	Response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with CR or PR based on mSWAT skin score. mSWAT score represents the product of the %TBSA involvement of each lesion type (patch, plaque, and tumor or ulceration), multiplied by a weighting factor: mSWAT score = (patch %TBSA x 1) + (plaque %TBSA x 2) + (tumor or ulcer %TBSA x 4). The sum of these 3 numbers gave the modified SWAT score, on a 0 (no lesions) to 400 (lesions covering all areas) scale. CR based on mSWAT score was defined as the absence of skin disease. PR was defined as = 50% decrease of the modified SWAT score compared to the Baseline score.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Responses in Index Lesions in Participants With Refractory CTCL by Lesion Measurements With Photographic Supporting Documentation	Index lesions in each participant were selected as four to six of the prominent lesions amenable to bi-dimensional measurements. The longest diameter and its perpendicular measurement were used to determine the surface area and a weighted sum was determined as: Lesion 1 + lesion 2 + … + lesions 6 = Total sum of weighted score where Lesion 1: cm^2 x [1 (for patch); 2 (for plaque); 4 (for tumor or ulcer)]; Lesion 2: cm^2 x [1 (for patch); 2 (for plaque); 4 (for tumor or ulcer)]; Lesion 6: cm^2 x [1 (for patch); 2 (for plaque); 4 (for tumor or ulcer)]. These lesions were photographed at Baseline and at the time of response determined by either mSWAT or PGA	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	ORR of Participants With Resistant CTCL Treated With Oral Panobinostat by Using the Modified PGA to Assess Skin Disease and the Evaluation of Disease in the Viscera, Lymph Nodes and Blood (Circulating Sézary Syndrome Cells)	ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with best OR of CR or PR based on PGA scale (OR = CR + PR). The PGA is a 7-point grading scale for the investigator's assessment of the overall extent of improvement or worsening of the participant's disease as compared to Baseline. CR corresponds to Grade 0 (completely clear) of PGA scale and was defined as no evidence of disease; 100% improvement. PR corresponds to Grade 2 (marked improvement) of PGA scale and was defined as significant improvement (=75%-<90%); some evidence of disease remains.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Duration of Response (DOR)	DOR was defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until the earliest date of documented progression or death due to any cause among participants who achieved a confirmed CR or PR. The DOR was calculated in two ways. The DOR among responders only included participants who responded to the drug. The overall DOR included non-responders as having a DOR of zero days.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Time to Response (TTR)	TTR was defined as the time from the start of treatment until the first documented evidence of CR or PR among participants who achieved a confirmed CR or PR.	From first dose of study drug up to study completion (approximately 2 years)
Secondary	Progression-Free Survival (PFS)	PFS was defined as the time from the start of treatment until the earliest date of disease progression or death due to any cause, if sooner.	From first dose of study drug up to disease progression or death, (up to approximately 2 years)
