Summary

The study is a two-arm, multi-center trial of Revlimid® and Rituximab, for the frontline treatment of patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) designed and conducted by the CLL Research Consortium (CRC). The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate of the combination of Revlimid® and Rituximab in previously untreated CLL patients in two arms- those aged 65 years and above and those younger than 65. Secondary objectives will evaluate the safety of the combination of Revlimid® and Rituximab, response duration, improvement in hematologic parameters, and the significance of the tumor flare reaction. All patients will have assessment of known prognostic factors for CLL as well as novel prognostic factors will be evaluated for predicting response to treatment. Biologic corollary studies are designed to evaluate the mechanism of Revlimid® in CLL and the combination of Revlimid® and Rituximab.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Lenalidomide and Rituximab

Lenalidomide starting at a low dose and escalated based on patient tolerability 21 days of every cycle. Rituximab at 375mg/m2 administered following the first 21 days of lenalidomide monotherapy, continued weekly throughout cycle 2, and then every 4 weeks for subsequent cycles. Each patient may receive up to a maximum of 7 cycles of treatment if no progressive disease or significant toxicity.
