A Pilot Study of Lenalidomide as a Chemopreventive Agent for Patients With High-Risk, Early Stage B-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
The purpose of this study is to determine if lenalidomide is safe and effective in the
treatment of patients with high-risk early stage B-Cell CLL who are asymptomatic.
Lenalidomide is a drug that alters the immune system and it may also interfere with the
development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth. Therefore, in theory, it
may reduce or prevent the growth of cancer cells.
Lenalidomide can be an important chemopreventive agent for the treatment of early stage CLL
with defined markers for poor prognosis.
