Women of childbearing potential must follow pregnancy testing requirements as outlined in the Revlimid REMS® program material.

Women of childbearing potential must also agree to ongoing pregnancy testing. Men must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with a woman of childbearing potential even if they have had a successful vasectomy. All patients must be counseled at a minimum of every 28 days about pregnancy precautions and risks of fetal exposure. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she must inform her treating physician immediately.

All study participants must be registered into the mandatory Revlimid REMS® program and be willing to comply with its requirements. Per standard Revlimid REMS® program requirements, all physicians who prescribe lenalidomide for research subjects enrolled into this trial, must be registered in, and must comply with, all requirements of the Revlimid REMS® program.

- Receiving chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologics, and/or other antitumor treatment with immunotherapy that is not completed at least 3 weeks prior to study entry, unless underlying disease is progressing on therapy.
- Currently receiving any other investigational agents.
- Known hypersensitivity to any excipient contained in the drug formulation of brentuximab vedotin or lenalidomide.
- Pregnant and/or breastfeeding. Women of childbearing potential 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.
- Receiving immunosuppressive therapy.
- Refractory to prior therapy with brentuximab vedotin (evidence of progression within 30 days of the last dose).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Safety as measured by grade and frequency of adverse events 30 days after completion of treatment Adverse events will be graded according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) as measured by the number of dose-limiting toxicities in each dose level (cohort) Completion of the first cycle for all participants in dose expansion phase (approximately 12 months) MTD is defined as the dose level immediately below the dose level at which 2 patients of a cohort (of 2 to 6 patients) experience dose-limiting toxicity during the first cycle. Dose escalations will proceed until the MTD has been reached.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall response rate Up to 2 years after discontinuation of treatment Complete response rate (CR) + Partial response rate (PR) = Overall response rate according to the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma (Cheson 2007).
Objective response rate as measured by CD30 expression Up to 2 years after discontinuation of treatment The objective response rate by CD30 expression (proportion of positive cells, staining intensity, or both) is defined as the proportion of patients with CR or PR stratified by different values or categories of CD30 expression. Positive CD30 expression is defined as ≥1% staining of the malignant cells.
Duration of response Up to 2 years after discontinuation of treatment Duration of response is defined as the time from start of the first documentation of objective tumor response (CR or PR) to the first documentation of tumor progression (including radiographic and clinical progression) or to death due to any cause, whichever comes first.
Duration of response data will be censored on the day following the date of the last disease assessment documenting absence of progressive disease for patients who do not have tumor progression and are still on study at the time of an analysis, are given antitumor treatment (including stem cell transplant) other than the study treatment, or are removed from study prior to documentation of tumor progression.
Duration of response will only be calculated for the subgroup of patients achieving a CR or PR.Progression-free survival (PFS) Up to 2 years after discontinuation of treatment PFS is defined as the time from start of study treatment to first documentation of tumor progression (including radiographic and clinical progression) or to death due to any cause, whichever comes first.
PFS data will be censored on the day following the date of the last disease assessment documenting absence of progressive disease for patients who do not have tumor progression and are still on study at the time of an analysis, are given antitumor treatment (including stem cell transplant) other than the study treatment, or are removed from study prior to documentation of tumor progression. Patients lacking an evaluation of tumor response after their first dose will have their event time censored at 1 day.
