Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Male and female subjects aged ≥18 years.
Willing and able to give informed consent
Diagnosis of Mycosis Fungoides In cases with equivocal histological features, the diagnosis may be confirmed through the use of clonal T-cell gamma gene rearrangement, as detected by PCR amplification and primer sets specific for the T-cell receptor gamma chain genes.
Subjects must have at least one target lesion
Subjects will be able to comply with the study instructions, apply the study medication as directed and attend all visits.
Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test before randomization and must agree to use an adequate method of contraception (abstinence, condoms, hormonal therapy, barrier methods) during the study.
Patients must be otherwise healthy with an ECOG Performance status of 0 or 1.
The patient must not have had topical (2 weeks) or systemic therapy (4 weeks), radiotherapy (4 weeks) or phototherapy therapy (4 weeks) for Mycosis Fungoides within the stated number of weeks prior to start of treatment.
Eligible patients will be those who topical corticosteroid would be a preferred treatment and include patients newly diagnosed with stage IA, IB, or IIA disease, or those patients currently stable on therapy, in whom topical corticosteroids are being newly added to the regimen (i.e. recurrence or resistant lesions not currently treated with topical corticosteroids)
