Study Summary

This trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given with ibrutinib and rituximab to treat patients with CLL or SLL that has come back, is refractory, has spread, or cannot be removed by surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma that's returned, spread, or can't be surgically removed. Eligible participants must not have severe allergies to the drugs being tested, no recent heart issues or strokes, and should not be pregnant. They need functioning major organs and cannot have used certain treatments recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests a combination of lenalidomide with ibrutinib and rituximab to see how well they work together against cancer cells. It's in phase I to determine side effects and the best dose. The study includes collecting biospecimens, bone marrow biopsies, imaging tests like CT scans and MRIs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions leading to inflammation in various organs, fatigue, blood disorders such as anemia or clotting problems, increased risk of infections due to lowered immunity from rituximab therapy.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (lenalidomide, ibrutinib, rituximab)Experimental Treatment8 Interventions
Patients receive rituximab IV on day 1 (up to 6 cycles), lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21 (up to 12 cycles), and ibrutinib PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo ECG on screening and CT scan or MRI, bone marrow biopsy and blood sample collection throughout the study.

Answered by AI

What further research has been conducted concerning Lenalidomide's therapeutic applications?

"Currently, there are 149 trials for Lenalidomide in Phase 3 with 721 active studies globally. Most of the research is centered on Ascoli Piceno Provincia, but 28285 different sites around the world have clinical trails involving lenolidomide."

Answered by AI

What measures have been taken to ensure patient safety when administering Lenalidomide?

"We assign Lenalidomide a safety score of 1 due to the limited evidence available in Phase 1 trials. This indicates that there is only minimal data on both its efficacy and security profile."

Answered by AI

How many patients are being recruited for this clinical experiment?

"Unfortunately, this particular clinical trial is no longer recruiting participants. It was first posted on May 9th 2014 and last updated on September 20th 2022. If you are still interested in being a part of medical studies, there are presently 3698 trials for leukemia patients searching for volunteers as well as 721 Lenalidomide-specific research projects actively seeking enrolment."

Answered by AI

What medical issues does Lenalidomide typically treat?

"Lenalidomide is the primary medication used to treat diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This pharmaceutical has also been observed to be effective in addressing other diseases, including multiple prior chemotherapy regimens, B-cell lymphomas, and polyangium."
