Lenalidomide (CC-5013; Revlimid®) is a thalidomide analog and oral immunomodulatory drug that has antiangiogenic, antiproliferative, and proapoptotic properties in patients with CTCL [26]. In a phase II trial, lenalidomide showed encouraging activity with acceptable toxicity in refractory advanced CTCL with an ORR of 28% [27]. Currently, there are multiple clinical trials underway for advanced CTCL investigating lenalidomide in combination with other agents including durvalumab and brentuximab vedotin among others.
