Study Summary

This study is for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have not yet received any treatment for their disease. Current therapy for this disease includes the use of combination chemotherapy regimens containing Fludarabine and Rituximab, which have been found to be very effective for CLL. In this study, subjects will receive Fludarabine and Rituximab. After 3 cycles or 6 cycles of Fludarabine and Rituximab treatment, they will receive Lenalidomide. We are doing this research because we are attempting to improve the response, or outcome, of Fludarabine and Rituximab in previously untreated CLL patients. 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 is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of specific types of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and in combination with dexamethasone for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). MDS and MM are blood disorders that involve different types of blood cells. It is not approved for chronic lymphocytic leukemia. It is currently being tested in a variety of cancer conditions. In this case it is considered experimental. This research is being done because we are attempting to find a better treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia. We do not know the effect of Lenalidomide following the regimen of Fludarabine and Rituximab. The hypothesis of the study is that adding Lenalidomide after the standard treatment regimen of Fludarabine and Rituximab will have better outcomes than treatment with Fludarabine and Rituximab alone.
