Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: The purpose of this trial is to determine the effect of HuMax-CD4, as a treatment for advanced stage (late stage) cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Almost all participants who are affected by late stage CTCL have many cancerous cells which bear a receptor called CD4. HuMax-CD4 is an investigational drug directed against this receptor. There is no placebo in this trial; all participants will be treated with HuMax-CD4. The response rates, duration of responses, relief of symptoms, and safety profile of HuMax-CD4 will be evaluated during this trial.

* Medical diagnosis of CTCL, and positivity for the CD4 receptor.
* Late stage CTCL.
* Have received at least one prior anti-cancer therapy with inadequate effect.
* World Health Organization (WHO) performance status 0,1 or 2

Exclusion Criteria

* Certain rare types of CTCL.
* Previous treatment with other anti-CD4 medications.
* More than two previous treatments with systemic chemotherapy.
