Abstract

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a haematological cancer that is characterised by eventual relapse after treatment with no guaranteed cure available. The use of lenalidomide in this cancer has been trialled with little success due to high toxicity. Optimisation of lenalidomide therapy is unlikely to occur without determining the reasons behind this toxicity. This thesis aimed to explore the pharmacokinetics of lenalidomide and methodologies that could benefit future clinical studies, including ones investigating lenalidomide pharmacodynamics.
