Lenalidomide, Cyclophosphamide, and Dexamethasone in Treating Patients With Primary Systemic Amyloidosis

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm

In brief

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop plasma cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of plasma cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lenalidomide together with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone may be an effective treatment for primary systemic amyloidosis. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving lenalidomide together with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone works in treating patients with primary systemic amyloidosis.
