Lenalidomide, sold under the brand name Revlimid among others, is a medication used to treat multiple myeloma, smoldering myeloma, and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).[8] For multiple myeloma, it is a first line treatment, and is given with dexamethasone.[8] It is taken by mouth.[8]

Common side effects include diarrhea, itchiness, joint pain, fever, headache, and trouble sleeping.[8] Severe side effects include low blood platelets, low white blood cells, and blood clots.[8] The dose may need to be adjusted in people with kidney problems.[8] Lenalidomide is closely related to thalidomide, which is known to cause severe birth defects, so its use during pregnancy is very likely to harm the fetus.[8]

Lenalidomide belongs to a class of drugs known as immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) or Cereblon E3 ligase modulators, which includes thalidomide and its analogs.[9] In lymphocytes, these drugs target an E3 ubiquitin ligase and change its specificity to include new targets.[9] This results in the rapid degradation of several disease-related proteins including IKZF1, IKZF3, and CSNK1A1.[9]

Lenalidomide was approved for medical use in the United States in 2005.[8] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[10]
