In the R/R cohort, four different dose levels of lenalidomide (maximum 15 mg/d) were used. In the FL cohort, lenalidomide was dose escalated from 5 mg/d to 15 mg/d. Bendamustine was used at doses of 50 or 90 mg/m(2) for R/R or FL treatment, respectively. 375 mg/m(2) Rituximab were used for the first and 500 mg/m(2) for subsequent treatment courses. Treatment consisted of up to six courses of 28 d.RESULTS: The maximal tolerable dose of lenalidomide was 5 mg/d. The response rate was 47.1% in R/R and 60% in FL patients. Median progression-free survival was 8.0 months. Median overall survival was 22.9 and 12.3 months, respectively, in R/R and FL patients.
