Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is a phase I - II multicenter, non-comparative, open label study in patients with previously treated CLL aimed at defining the MTD of Lenalidomide given in combination with Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and at evaluating the (CR) rate of FC given in combination with the MTD of Lenalidomide (FCL).

[]Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Maximum Tolerated Dose of Lenalidomide (Phase I)
- timeFrame
- The MTD of Lenalinomide will be evaluated during the two courses given with the escalated dose of Lenalinomide defined by the respective dose level.
- description
- Maximum tolerated dose of lenalidomide given in combination with fludarabine.
- measure
- Overall Complete Response (CR) Rate (Phase II)
- timeFrame
- After 6 months from study entry (end of treatment).
- description
- Response will be assessed by clinical examination, peripheral blood, bone marrow aspirate and biopsy, radiographic evaluation. Response will be evaluated at three different levels: clinical, cytometric and molecular.

FCBP must agree to use two reliable forms of contraception for at least 28 days before starting study drug; while participating in the study; and for at least 4 weeks after discontinuation from the study. * Females must agree to abstain from breastfeeding during study participation and for at least 28 days after discontinuation from the study. * Males must agree to use a latex condom during sexual contact with females of childbearing potential while participating in the study and for at least 4 weeks following discontinuation. * (Other details regarding pregnancy tests and contraception are reported in the chapter "Eligibility Criteria" within the study protocol). Exclusion criteria: * Treatment with Campath-1H during the previous 6 months. * Concurrent use of other anti-cancer agents. * Positive DAT with clinical and laboratory signs of hemolysis, autoimmune thrombocytopenia. * Known positivity for HIV or active infectious hepatitis. * Active bacterial, viral, or fungal infection requiring systemic anti-viral, antibiotic or anti-fungal therapy. * 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 (lactating females must agree not to breast feed while taking Lenalidomide). * Any condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study. * Prior history or presence of thrombosis, thromboembolism, hearth failure or arrhythmia, neurologic disease and renal insufficiency. * Use of any other experimental drug or therapy within 28 days of baseline. * Known hypersensitivity to thalidomide. * The development of erythema nodosum, desquamating rash while taking thalidomide or similar drugs. * Any prior use of Lenalidomide * Lactose intolerance
