Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Phase I dose escalation study of micro-dose oral lenalidomide as maintenance therapy after allogeneic stem cell transplantation for patients with AML or MDS at high risk of relapse.

Participants commence lenalidomide oral tablets from day 40 post-allogeneic transplant, as per the dosing levels described below:
Dose level 1: lenalidomide 2.5mg oral weekly
Dose level 2: lenalidomide 2.5mg oral twice per week
Dose level 3: lenalidomide 5mg oral twice per week
Dose level 4: lenalidomide 5mg oral every second day
Dose level 5: lenalidomide 10mg oral every second day

Treatment will continue for up to 48 weeks unless there is disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Intervention adherence will not be routinely assessed.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 319594 0
The composite incidence of death, grade 3-4 infection, grade 3-4 acute GVHD, grade 3-4 haematologic and non-haematologic toxicity

Outcome definitions:
Acute GVHD will be assessed according to consensus criteria (Glucksberg criteria)
Grade 3-4 infection, haematologic toxicity and non-haematologic toxicity are defined according to CTCAE v4.0 criteria
Timepoint [1] 319594 0
120 days after initiation of lenalidomide
Secondary outcome [1] 368817 0
Overall survival, defined as the time from transplant to the date of death from any cause
Timepoint [1] 368817 0
1 year post-transplant
Secondary outcome [2] 369098 0
Progression-free survival defined as the time from transplant to leukaemia progression or death, whichever comes first. Leukaemia progression will be defined as the presence of circulating leukaemia blasts, bone marrow blasts greater than 5% of total cellularity or the presence of new extramedullary leukaemia.
Timepoint [2] 369098 0
1 year post-transplant

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety of low-dose lenalidomide treatment after allogeneic stem cell transplantation for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia or myelodysplastic syndromes at high risk of relapse.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible to join this study if you are aged 18 years or above, and have been diagnosed with either high risk acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), OR high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

Study details
All participants in this study will undergo treatment with the drug, lenalidomide, which will commence between day 40-45 after allogeneic stem cell transplant. Lenalidomide is an oral tablet, which will be taken for up to 48 weeks. The dose of lenalidomide in the study will commence at 2.5mg once per week, with subsequent groups increasing to 2.5mg twice per week, 5mg twice per week, 5mg every second day, 10mg every second day. Each participant will be assigned to receive one dose level for the entire study.

The safety of lenalidomide treatment will be assessed by the incidence of side effects 120 days after starting the first dose of lenalidomide.

This study will determine the safest dose of lenalidomide after allogeneic transplantation for patients at high risk of relapse.
