Study Summary

This trial is studying lenalidomide and rituximab to see how well they work compared with rituximab in treating patients with follicular or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with specific types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that have relapsed or didn't respond to treatment. Participants should be relatively healthy, not pregnant, and without serious recent cancers or neuropathy. They must have at least one measurable lesion and no CNS metastases, a decent performance status (ECOG 0-2), acceptable blood counts, organ function, and agree to use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the combination of lenalidomide (a drug that may stimulate the immune system) with rituximab (an antibody that blocks cancer growth) in treating lymphoma. It's a phase II trial aimed at seeing how well this combo works against follicular or small lymphocytic non-Hodgkin lymphoma after other treatments failed.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Lenalidomide can cause side effects like fatigue, diarrhea, rash or itching; it might also affect blood cell counts leading to higher infection risk. Rituximab could cause infusion reactions such as fever and chills, body aches, tiredness; rarely severe skin reactions or heart problems may occur.
