Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 1
25 mg lenalidomide
 Drug: Lenalidomide
Patients will receive maintenance therapy according to their assigned treatment arm: 25 mg daily for 21 days every 28 days. During the treatment period patients will be seen every 4 weeks until disease progression is documented. All patients who have to discontinue the study drug will be followed until disease progression.
Other Name: Revlimid
Experimental: 2
5 mg lenalidomide
 Drug: Lenalidomide
Patients will receive maintenance therapy according to their assigned treatment arm:5 mg daily for 21 days every 28 days. During the treatment period patients will be seen every 4 weeks until disease progression is documented. All patients who have to discontinue the study drug will be followed until disease progression
Other Name: Revlimid

Detailed Description:

High-dose therapy will be performed as first line treatment. After high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation the patients will be included and randomised. Three month after high-dose therapy all patients will receive consolidation therapy with 6 cycles of lenalidomide 25 mg daily for 21 days every 28 days. Afterwards patients will receive maintenance therapy according to their assigned treatment arm. Randomisation will be performed in a 1:1 ratio to continuous maintenance therapy with either 25mg or 5mg lenalidomide daily for 21 days every 28 days.Randomisation will be stratified by ISS-stage (1+2 vs 3, age (younger than 66 years versus 66 years or older), response after high-dose therapy (CR+vgPR vs PR vs MR/SD. Patients will be treated until disease progression.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed informed consent form
  • Age 18-75 years
  • Able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements
  • Patients with multiple myeloma who have received high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation as first-line therapy within the last 90 - 120 days and have not shown progressive disease afterwards.
  • Patients may have received up to 6 cycles of prior induction therapy and up to 2 cycles of prior mobilisation chemotherapy. A bortezomib or thalidomide induction therapy is allowed. Patients may also have received prior radiation therapy
  • Measurable levels of myeloma paraprotein in serum (>0.5 g/dL) or urine (>0.2 g/24hours) or measurable free light chains (FLC) in serum (>50 mg/l) with an abnormal FLC ratio must be documented at the time of first diagnosis.
  • ECOG performance status = 2 at study entry

  • Laboratory and functional test results within these ranges:

    • ANC ≥ 1,000/μL
    • Platelet count ≥ 100,000/μL
    • Total bilirubin 2.5 mg/dL
    • AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) 3 x ULN
    • Patients with impaired renal function can be included
  • The patient must be able to adhere to the pregnancy precautions
  • Disease free of prior malignancies for 5 years with exception of currently treated basal cell, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma "in situ" of the cervix or breast

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from signing the informed consent form
  • Pregnant or breast feeding females
  • Any condition or laboratory abnormality which places the subject at an unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study
  • Known allergic/hypersensitivity reaction to thalidomide, lenalidomide or any components of the treatment
  • Any cutaneous grade ≥ 3 adverse reaction (for example desquamating rash) while taking thalidomide or similar drugs
  • Any prior use of lenalidomide
  • Known positive for HIV or active infectious hepatitis, type A, B or C
