Abstract
Recent advances in the treatment of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma have driven a paradigm shift from standard chemotherapy to an ever-expanding choice of targeted agents and combinations. As an orally bioavailable immunomodulator with antineoplastic, immunologic, and antiproliferative activity in B-cell lymphoma, lenalidomide has emerged as one such option. Lenalidomide demonstrates clinically significant activity with a favorable safety profile as a single agent, as well as in combination therapy. Herein, we review accumulated clinical data on lenalidomide, with particular reference to patients with first-line and relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma, indolent lymphoma, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
