Abstract
The prognosis of therapy refractory angioimmunoblastic lymphoma (AITL) is very poor. In this report we describe a patient with AITL refractory to 2 lines of chemotherapy. He was treated with lenalidomide 15 mg continuously and prednisone. After 2 yr follow-up, the patient has no detectable disease. Lenalidomide was well tolerated without side-effects. Lenalidomide even in lower dosed combined with steroids can induce complete responses in patients with refractory AITL.Entities:
