| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the efficacy and tolerability of lenalidomide in the treatment of patients with poor risk early stage Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL). ;Secondary Objective: If treatment with lenalidomide is shown to be effective the secondary objective would be to conduct a randomised phase III trial to compare lenalidomide treatment with the current standard therapy (observation).;Primary end point(s): Disease response assessment by achievement of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) negative complete remission (CR). | — |
