Jia Ruan, MD, PhD, associate professor of clinical medicine, Weill Cornell Medicine/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, discusses the combination of lenalidomide (Revlimid) plus rituximab (Rituxan) in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).

The 5-year follow-up and correlative analysis from a phase II multi-center study of lenalidomide plus rituximab as initial treatment for patients with MCL was presented at the 2017 ASH Annual Meeting.

Ruan says that the aim of this study was to explore potential chemotherapy-free options for this patient population.
