First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests the drug lenalidomide in 42 adults with Behçet's syndrome who have stubborn mouth ulcers. Participants take 10 mg of lenalidomide daily for 12 weeks, then stop for 4 weeks of observation. The main goal is to see if the ulcers completely disappear by week 12.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Lenalidomide (a drug that modifies the immune system)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for painful mouth ulcers in people with Behçet's syndrome that haven't responded to other therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with no control group, so results may not be conclusive. Lenalidomide can have side effects like blood clots and low blood counts.
