c. Spleen or liver
d. Skin
e. Peripheral blood
f. Bone marrow
5) Relapsed or refractory after at least one prior systemic therapy regimen for ATL;

Note: Retesting for values out of criteria will be permitted. Subjects being recruited to this study will not necessarily meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria for baseline organ function, for investigator's choice regimens due to the leukemic nature of their illness and bone marrow involvement by the neoplastic process; this should be taken into account by the
investigator and if necessary discussed with the medical monitor.

10) Adequate renal function:
a. serum creatinine < 2 x ULN
or
b. calculated creatinine clearance > 60 mL/min using the Cockroft-Gault formula (or >30 mL/min with documented renal infiltration);
Note: Retesting for values out of criteria will be permitted
11) Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of receiving study medication and prior to each treatment cycle;
12) WOCBP must agree to use effective contraception, defined as oral contraceptives, double barrier method (condom plus spermicide or diaphragm plus spermicide) or practice true abstinence from sexual intercourse* (periodic abstinence ,e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception) during the study and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug. WOCBP includes any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization or is not postmenopausal (defined as amenorrhea ≥ 12 consecutive months without an alternative medical cause). * In Belgium, abstinence is not accepted as a method of contraception;
13) Male subjects and their female partners of child bearing potential must be willing to use an appropriate method of contraception defined as oral contraceptives, double barrier method (condom plus spermicide or diaphragm plus spermicide) or practice true abstinence from sexual intercourse* (periodic abstinence, e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception) during the study and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug. * In Belgium, abstinence is not accepted as a method of contraception. |

However, subjects with non-melanoma skin cancers, melanoma in situ, localized cancer of the prostate with current PSA of < 0.1 μg/mL, treated thyroid cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ or ductal/lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast with in the past two years may enroll as long as there is no current evidence of disease;
9) Clinical evidence of CNS involvement or metastasis.
10) Psychiatric illness, disability or social situation that would compromise the subject’s safety or ability to provide consent, or limit compliance with study requirements;
11) Significant uncontrolled intercurrent illness (as per protocol).
12) Subjects with a history of moderate or severe psoriasis or with psoriasis associated with systemic symptoms e.g., arthropathy, or with a 1st degree relative with history of psoriasis that required systemic medical intervention.

14) Subjects randomized to the investigator’s choice treatment group may not receive a treatment they
have had previously or any contra-indication to any of the investigator's choice

18) Initiation of treatment with systemic corticosteroids while on study is only permitted for acute and brief complications of underlying disease (e.g., hypercalcemia) or for treatment related side effects (e.g., including pre-medication for infusion reaction, nausea and vomiting). Subjects on systemic corticosteroids prior to enrollment must be off for 7 days before initiation of study treatment, unless specifically indicated for the treatment of hypercalcemia. However, once the calcium returns to normal and the subject is on protocol treatment, the corticosteroid should be tapered to discontinuation as rapidly as possible. All tests to document extent of disease must be performed after completion of corticosteroid treatment and prior to first study treatment (subjects may receive intra-articular corticosteroid
injections, intraocular corticosteroid drops, inhalation or nasal corticosteroids and replacement doses of systemic corticosteroids as needed);
19) Subjects on a stable dose of medium or low potency topical corticosteroids for at least 4 weeks prior to
study entry may continue use at the same dose, although the investigator should attempt to taper to the
lowest dosage tolerable while on study. Initiation of treatment with topical corticosteroids while on study is not permitted except to treat an acute rash. Assessment of skin disease must be documented after completion of corticosteroid treatment and before study treatment is reinitiated;
20) Have had interferon-α, and/or zidovudine, within 1 week, or antineoplastic chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, or investigational medications within 2 weeks of first study treatment. However, subjects with rapidly progressive malignant disease may be enrolled prior to these periods after discussion of the case with the Medical Monitor;
