• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2009-02-01

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Disease-free of prior malignancies for greater than or equal to 2 years with exception of basal cell, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma "in situ" of the cervix or breast.

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 3.

• Total bilirubin less than or equal to 3.0 mg/dL (unless due to tumor) and serum creatinine less than or equal to 3.0 mg/dL (unless due to tumor).

• Females of childbearing potential (FCBP)† must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL within 10 - 14 days prior to and again within 24 hours of starting lenalidomide and must either commit to continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse or begin TWO acceptable methods of birth control, one highly effective method and one additional effective method AT THE SAME TIME, at least 4 weeks before she starts taking lenalidomide. FCBP must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Use of any other experimental drug or therapy within 28 days of therapy, except in cases with rapidly progressive disease and/or recovery from all toxicity from previous therapy (does not apply to growth factors).

• Platelet count less than 30,000.

• Known prior clinically relevant hypersensitivity reaction or desquamating rash with thalidomide.
