Experimental: Quisinostat
Participants will receive quisinostat 12 mg capsule orally (by mouth) on Days 1, 3, and 5 of each week in a 21-day treatment cycle, until a reason for discontinuation is met (ie, disease progression, toxicity, availability of other effective medications that the participant may receive, or treating physician advice).

- Number of participants who will achieve overall cutaneous Response Rate (RR) based on modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (mSWAT) criteria [ Time Frame: From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]The RR is defined as the number of participants who will achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). mSWAT criteria is used to evaluate the skin tumor burden. The investigator will determine the percentage of total body surface area (TBSA) affected by patches, plaques or tumors in 12 body regions, using the participant's palm and fingers representing 1% of TBSA. CR is defined as 100% clearance of skin lesions and PR is defined as 50% to 99 % clearance of skin lesions from baseline without occurrence of a new tumor.
- Number of participants who will achieve global Response Rate (RR) based on based on consensus global response score [ Time Frame: From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death from any cause or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]The RR is defined as the number of participants who will achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Global response score provides uniformity in the assessment of response and utilizes all component of the tumor-node-metastasis-blood staging (ie, skin, nodes, viscera and blood). Complete response is defined as complete disappearance of all clinical evidence of disease (all categories have CR/ non-involved [NI]) and PR is defined as regression of measurable disease (all categories do not have a CR/NI and no category has a PD and if any other category involved at baseline, at least one has a CR or PR).
- Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From the date of administration of the first dose of study medication until progressive disease or death from any cause, whichever occurs first; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]PFS is defined as the interval between the date of administration of the first dose of study medication and the date of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
- Kaplan-Meier Estimates of 1-year overall survival (OS) rate [ Time Frame: From the date of administration of the first dose of study medication up to the date of progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first; as assessed up to 1 year ]1-year OS rate is defined as the number of participants surviving at 1 year after the date of administration of the first dose of study medication.
- Duration of response (DOR) for participants achieving Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) [ Time Frame: First documentation of CR or PR until the date of first documentation of progressive disease, or death from any cause; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]DOR for participants achieving a CR or PR is defined as the date from the first documentation of CR or PR until the date of first documentation of progressive disease, or death from any cause.
- The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) [ Time Frame: From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death from any cause or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess quality of life of cancer patients. It is composed of 30 items, multi-item measure (28 items) and 2 single-item measures. For the multiple item measure, 4-point scale is used and the score for each item range from "1 = not at all" to "4 = very much". Higher scores indicate worsening. The 2 single-item measure involves question about the overall health and overall quality of life which will be rated on a 7-point scale ranging from "1 = very poor" to "7 = excellent". Lower scores indicate worsening.
- Pruritus Intensity Assessment Questionnaire scale scores [ Time Frame: From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death from any cause or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant ]Pruritus Intensity Assessment Questionnaire is an 11-point scale that requires the participant to rate the intensity of their pruritus. The scores range from '0= no pruritus; 10 = worst imaginable'. Pruritus relief will be defined as a 3 or more point decrease in participant who have a baseline pruritus score of 3 or more points or complete resolution of pruritus for 3 or more continuous weeks without an increase in the use of antipruritic medications. Higher score indicates worsening.
- Number of participants with adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years after 6 months enrollment of the last participant ]
