About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Lenalidomide Revlimid(Registered Trademark) in Previously Treated Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new drug called lenalidomide (Revlimid) for treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who relapsed after their initial treatment.

Patients 21 years of age and older with CLL or SLL who have previously received standard treatment may be eligible for this study.

Participants take lenalidomide capsules once a day for 21 days, followed by 21 days off the drug. This constitutes one treatment cycle. Treatment continues for four cycles as long as the medicine is tolerated. After four cycles, patients who respond completely continue treatment for another two cycles; patients who respond partially continue treatment for another four cycles; and patients who do not respond stop treatment but continue to be followed for safety.

Read the detailed description

There is evidence that lenalidomide has single agent activity in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL). Optimal dosing of lenalidomide in CLL has not been established yet. A pilot clinical trial in CLL studied single agent lenalidomide cycled every 4 weeks with 25 mg for three weeks on and one week off drug. In this trial dose reductions have been necessary secondary to prolonged neutropenia or thrombocytopenia in a majority of patients. However, there was also remarkable efficacy and evidence for an immune stimulatory effect of lenalidomide. Therefore, we propose this phase II trial using 20 mg lenalidomide (Revlimid(Registered Trademark)) 3 weeks on and 3 weeks off for 4 cycles in subjects who have been previously treated for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL). Subjects with at least partial response (PR) may go on to receive 4 additional cycles.

The primary objective of the trial is to test the efficacy of a more tolerable dosing scheme of lenalidomide.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To Establish the Overall Response Rate Measured at 24 Weeks After First Dose of Lenalidomide Using This Dosing Regimen

    To establish the overall response rate based on peripheral blood measures (absolute neutrophil count, platelets, and/or hemoglobin), lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly or constitutional symptoms; and bone marrow biopsy measured at 24 weeks after first dose of lenalidomide using this dosing regimen

    Measured: 24 weeks of lenalidomide therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lenalidomide in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, run by Georg Aue, M.D. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jan 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To Establish the Overall Response Rate Measured at 24 Weeks After First Dose of Lenalidomide Using This Dosing Regimen (time frame: 24 weeks of lenalidomide therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00439231, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Jan 2014.
