•MM, as maintenance following autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) .

• Transfusion-dependent anemia due to low- or intermediate-1-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) associated with a deletion 5q abnormality with or without additional cytogenetic abnormalities.

• Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) whose disease has relapsed or progressed after two prior therapies, one of which included bortezomib .

• Previously treated follicular lymphoma (FL), in combination with a rituximab product .

• Previously treated marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), in combination with a rituximab product.

Limitations of Use:

• LuciLena is not indicated and is not recommended for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) outside of controlled clinical trials.

 

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

•  MM combination therapy: 25 mg once daily orally on Days 1-21 of repeated 28-day cycles.

• MM maintenance therapy following auto-HSCT: 10 mg once daily continuously on Days 1-28 of repeated 28-day cycles.

• MDS: 10 mg once daily .

• MCL: 25 mg once daily orally on Days 1-21 of repeated 28-day cycles.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• Increased Mortality: serious and fatal cardiac adverse reactions occurred in patients with CLL treated with LuciLena (lenalidomide) .

• Second Primary Malignancies (SPM): Higher incidences of SPM were observed in controlled trials of patients with MM receiving LuciLena .

• Increased Mortality: Observed in patients with MM when pembrolizumab was added to dexamethasone and a thalidomide analogue .

• Hepatotoxicity: Hepatic failure including fatalities; monitor liver function. Stop LuciLena and evaluate if hepatotoxicity is suspected .

• Severe Cutaneous Reactions: Discontinue LuciLena for severe reactions .

• Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) including fatalities: Monitor patients at risk of TLS (i.e., those with high tumor burden) and take appropriate precautions.

• Tumor fare reaction: Serious tumor fare reactions, including fatal reactions, have occurred during investigational use of LuciLena for chronic lymphocytic leukemia and lymphoma.

• Impaired Stem Cell mobilization: A decrease in the number of CD34+ cells collected after treatment (>4 cycles) with LuciLena has been reported. Consider early referral to transplant center .

• Early mortality in MCL: Higher rate of early deaths have occurred in patients with MCL .

• Hypersensitivity: Monitor patients for potential hypersensitivity. Discontinue LuciLena for angioedema and anaphylaxis.

with LuciLena may increase the risk of thrombosis.
