- Age = 18 years.
- Patients must be diagnosed with asymptomatic high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) within the past 60 months, as confirmed by both of the following: 1) Bone marrow plasmacytosis or
2) Abnormal serum free light chain ratio
- Patients must have measurable levels of monoclonal protein (M-protein): =1g/dL on serum protein electrophoresis or =200 mg of monoclonal protein on a 24 hour urine protein electrophoresis
- Patients must have no lytic lesions on skeletal surveys and no hypercalcemia (i.e., > 11 mg/dL).
- The following laboratory levels must be obtained within four weeks prior to randomization:
Hemoglobin = 11 g/dL / Platelet count = 100,000 cells/mm3 / Absolute neutrophil count = 1500 cells/mm3 / Calculated creatinine clearance = 30 mL/min / Bilirubin = 1.5 mg/dL / SGPT (ALT) and SGOT (AST) = 2.5 times the upper limit of normal.
- Prior systemic glucocorticosteroid use for the treatment of non-malignant disorders is permitted; concurrent use after registration on the study should be restricted to the equivalent of prednisone 10 mg per day.
- Prior or concurrent topical or localized glucocorticosteroid therapy to treat non-malignant comorbid disorders is permitted.
- ECOG performance status 0, 1, or 2.
- Patients may have a history of current or previous deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism but are required to take some form of anti-coagulation as prophylaxis if they are not currently on full-dose anticoagulation.
- Patients with a history of prior malignancy are eligible provided they were treated with curative intent and have been free of disease for the time period considered appropriate for cure of the specific cancer.
- Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL within 10 – 14 days prior to and again within 24 hours of starting cycle 1 of 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 28 days before she starts taking lenalidomide. FCBP must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing. Men must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with a FCBP even if they have had a successful vasectomy.
- HIV infection is not excluded. HIV+ patients must meet the following criteria:
* CD4 cell count > 350/mm3
* No history of AIDS-related illness
* Not currently prescribed zidvoudine or stavudine
