Study of Lenalidomide (Revlimid) in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL) Patients
- Registration Number
- NCT01036399
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Bologna
- Brief Summary
Revlimid is a potent immunomodulatory analogue without the teratogenic effects, which has direct anti-tumor effects, anti-angiogenic and both anti-inflammatory and T-cell costimulatory properties. Both preclinical and clinical data indicate its efficacy solid tumor and multiple myeloma including advanced/refractory stages with its role in enhancing host antitumor immunity that provided the rationale to use in patients with PTCL.

Group Intervention Description Revlimid Lenalidomide Oral Revlimid is initiated on day 1 of cycle 1at the dose of 25 mg daily for 21 days with 7 days rest (28 day cycle) for a total of 4 cycles. After this induction phase, the CR, PR and SD will continue Revlimid with the same schedule for other 8 months.
