Lenalidomide (Revlimid) is a thalidomide analogue and an immunomodulatory imide drug (IMiD). It is formulated as hard gelatin capsules for oral route of administration.

Mechanism of Action

Lenalidomide is a thalidomide analogue with immunomodulatory, antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activities.  By activating cereblon (a component of a cullin ring E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme complex), lenalidomide mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of the substrate proteins (including Aiolos, Ikaros and CK1 alpha), leading to direct cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects. It also inhibits TNF-alpha production, stimulates T cells, reduces serum levels of the cytokines namely vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF).

Revlimid Overview
