A member asked:
Is revlimid (lenalidomide) effective for acute myelogenous leukemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: If the leukemia develops out of a myelodysplasia and has evidence of a 5q-, then possibly. But, the results are mediocre at best. Not curative by any stretch but could possibly slow the leukemia down for a short time. Hope this helps.
