Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if lenalidomide (Revlimid®) is safe and effective as a maintenance therapy at improving further the quality of the response you achieved with your last therapy and at prolonging the duration of your response. This study will compare the effects (good and bad) of lenalidomide with the dummy drug.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

Detailed Description

This is a phase 3, randomized (computer assigned by chance to treatment arm), study being completed an multiple sites to compare the safety and efficacy (how well a drug works) of lenalidomide maintenance therapy to placebo (dummy capsule that contains no lenalidomide or active substances) maintenance therapy.

Patients are assigned by a computer with a 50/50 chance to receive placebo or lenalidomide study treatment. Study drug will be taken once each day until the patient discontinues the study. Patients will remain on study drug until progression of disease.

Patients will visit their study doctor every 28 days until disease progression to complete safety and efficacy assessments. Quality of life assessments will be completed every other month. If a patient who discontinue study drug prior to disease progression (i.e. due to an adverse reaction to the study drug), they will continue to visit the study doctor each month to complete the efficacy assessments up to progression of disease. Safety assessments may include laboratory blood tests, ECG tests and questions about any medical conditions or side effects experienced during the study. Efficacy assessments may include laboratory blood tests and focused physical exams.

Computed tomography (CT) scans along with blood tests and bone marrow samples will be collected to confirm if a patient has improvement of response while on study.

After disease progression, patients will be contacted every 12 weeks for survival information, next CLL treatments and quality of life questions.

Subjects currently on lenalidomide treatment will discontinue lenalidomide treatment immediately and complete the Treatment Discontinuation assessment. The subjects will then transition to the survival follow-up period.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Survival (OS) [Up to approximately 11 years]

      Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. OS will be censored at the last date that the participant was known to be alive for participants who were alive at the time of analysis and for participants who were lost to follow-up before death was documented.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression Free Survival 2 (PFS2) [Up to 6 years]

      Progression Free Survival (PFS2) assessed by investigator is defined as the time from randomization to the second objective disease progression, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    2. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [From first dose to 30 days post last dose (up to 9 years)]

      Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) that measure type, frequency and severity of AEs graded by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria (NCI CTCAE V 3.0) including any grade adverse events (AEs), Grade 3-4 AEs, AEs related to study drug, grade 3-4 AEs related to study drug.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Overall Survival (OS)
    Description Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. OS will be censored at the last date that the participant was known to be alive for participants who were alive at the time of analysis and for participants who were lost to follow-up before death was documented.
    Time Frame Up to approximately 11 years
