Summary

This study tested whether adding the drug lenalidomide to a standard chemotherapy regimen (MEC) could help adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that had come back or not responded to previous treatment. The trial enrolled 41 people aged 18 to 70. The main goal was to see how many patients achieved complete remission (no signs of cancer) or complete remission without full platelet recovery.
