1. What Lenalidomide SUN is and what it is used for

What Lenalidomide SUN is

  • Lenalidomide SUN contains the active substance “lenalidomide”. This medicine belongs to a group of medicines that affect the way the immune system works.

What Lenalidomide SUN is used for
Lenalidomide SUN is used in adults for:

  1. Multiple myeloma
  2. Follicular lymphoma

Multiple myeloma
Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that affects a certain type of white blood cells called plasma cells. These cells accumulate in the bone marrow and divide uncontrollably. This can damage the bones and kidneys.
Multiple myeloma is generally incurable. However, signs and symptoms can be significantly reduced or disappear for a certain period of time. This outcome is called a “response”.

Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: in patients undergoing bone marrow transplant
Lenalidomide SUN is used alone as maintenance therapy in patients who have adequately recovered after bone marrow transplantation.

Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: in patients who cannot undergo bone marrow transplant
Lenalidomide SUN is taken together with other medicines, which may include:

  • a chemotherapy medicine called “bortezomib”;
  • an anti-inflammatory medicine called “dexamethasone”;
  • a chemotherapy medicine called “melphalan”; and
  • an immunosuppressive medicine called “prednisone”.
    You will take these other medicines at the beginning of treatment and then continue taking Lenalidomide SUN alone. If you are aged 75 years or older or have moderate to severe kidney problems, your doctor will carefully monitor you before starting treatment.

Multiple myeloma: in patients who have already been treated
Lenalidomide SUN is taken together with an anti-inflammatory medicine called “dexamethasone”.
Lenalidomide SUN can stop the worsening of signs and symptoms of multiple myeloma. It has also been shown to delay the return of multiple myeloma after treatment.

Follicular lymphoma (FL)
FL is a slow-growing form of cancer affecting B-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cells that help the body fight infections. In FL, an excessive number of these B-lymphocytes may accumulate in the blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen.
Lenalidomide SUN is taken together with another medicine called “rituximab” for the treatment of adult patients with previously treated follicular lymphoma.

How Lenalidomide SUN works
Lenalidomide SUN acts on the body’s immune system and directly on the tumour in several ways:

  • by stopping the growth of tumour cells;
  • by stopping the growth of blood vessels that supply blood to tumour cells;
  • by stimulating part of the immune system to attack tumour cells.

2. What you should know before taking Lenalidomide SUN

Before starting treatment with Lenalidomide SUN, you must read the package leaflet
of all the medicines you are required to take in combination with
Lenalidomide SUN.
Do not take Lenalidomide SUN

  • If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or are planning a pregnancy, because Lenalidomide SUN is expected to be harmful to the unborn child (see section 2, 'Pregnancy, breastfeeding and contraception – information for women and men'). -
  • If there is any possibility that you may become pregnant unless you follow all necessary measures

to avoid pregnancy (see section 2 'Pregnancy, breastfeeding and contraception – information for women and men'). If there is any possibility of becoming pregnant, your doctor will record and confirm at each prescription that the necessary measures to avoid pregnancy have been taken. 

  • If you are allergic to lenalidomide or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you think you may be allergic, consult your doctor. -

If any of these conditions apply to you, do not take Lenalidomide SUN. If you have any doubts, consult your doctor.
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before taking Lenalidomide SUN if:

  • you have previously experienced episodes of blood clots, as the risk of developing blood clots in the veins and arteries increases during treatment
  • you have any signs of infection, such as cough or fever
  • you have or have previously had a viral infection, particularly: hepatitis B infection, varicella-zoster, HIV. If you have any doubts, consult your doctor. Treatment with Lenalidomide SUN may cause reactivation of the virus in patients who carry the virus. This leads to recurrence of the infection. Your doctor must check whether you have previously had hepatitis B infection
  • you have kidney problems; your doctor may adjust the dose of Lenalidomide SUN
  • you have had a heart attack, have had a blood clot, or if you smoke, have high blood pressure, or high cholesterol levels
  • you have previously had an allergic reaction during treatment with thalidomide (another medicine used to treat multiple myeloma), such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or difficulty breathing
  • you have previously experienced any combination of the following symptoms: widespread rash, skin redness, high body temperature, flu-like symptoms, increased liver enzymes, blood abnormalities (eosinophilia), swollen lymph nodes; these are signs of a serious skin reaction called drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, also known as DRESS or drug hypersensitivity syndrome (see also section 4 “Possible side effects”).

If any of these conditions apply to you, inform your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting treatment.
At any time during or after treatment, immediately inform your doctor or nurse if:

  • you experience blurred vision, loss of vision or double vision, difficulty speaking, weakness in one arm or leg, changes in the way you walk or problems with balance, persistent numbness, reduced sensation or loss of sensation, memory loss or confusion. These may be symptoms of a serious brain condition that can be fatal, known as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). If you had these symptoms before treatment with Lenalidomide SUN, inform your doctor of any changes in these symptoms. -
  • you experience shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, chest pain, rapid heartbeat, or swelling in your legs or ankles. These may be symptoms of a serious condition known as pulmonary hypertension (see section 4). -

Tests and monitoring
Before and during treatment with Lenalidomide SUN, you will undergo regular blood tests. This is because Lenalidomide SUN may cause a reduction in blood cells that protect you from infections (white blood cells) and those that help blood clot (platelets). Your doctor will ask you to have blood tests:

  • before starting treatment -
  • every week for the first 8 weeks of treatment -
  • then at least once a month thereafter. -

For patients with FL taking Lenalidomide SUN
Your doctor will ask you to have a blood test:

  • before starting treatment -
  • once a week for the first 3 weeks (1 cycle) of treatment -
  • then every 2 weeks for cycles 2 to 4 (for further information, see section 3 “Treatment cycle”) -
  • subsequently at the beginning of each cycle and -
  • at least once a month. -

Your doctor may check whether you have a high tumour burden throughout your body, including in the bone marrow. This could lead to a condition in which tumours break down and cause abnormal levels of chemicals in the blood, potentially leading to kidney failure (this condition is called “tumour lysis syndrome”).
Your doctor may monitor for skin changes, such as red spots or rashes.
Your doctor may decide to adjust the dose of Lenalidomide SUN or stop treatment depending on the results of blood tests and your general condition. If you are a newly diagnosed patient, your doctor may also consider treatment based on your age and any other pre-existing conditions.
Blood donation
You must not donate blood during treatment with lenalidomide and for at least 7 days after stopping treatment.
Children and adolescents
The use of Lenalidomide SUN is not recommended in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.
Elderly patients and patients with kidney problems
In patients aged 75 years or older, or with moderate or severe kidney problems, your doctor will perform careful checks before starting treatment.
Other medicines and Lenalidomide SUN
Inform your doctor or nurse if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. This is because Lenalidomide SUN may affect the action of other medicines and other medicines may affect the action of Lenalidomide SUN.
In particular, inform your doctor or nurse if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • certain medicines used to prevent pregnancy, such as oral contraceptives, as they may become less effective -
  • certain medicines used for heart problems, such as digoxin -
  • certain medicines used to thin the blood, such as warfarin. -
