The availability of novel drugs with different and innovative mechanisms of action such as proteasome inhibitors such as bortezomib and immunomdulatory agents as thalidomide and lenalidomide have changed the landscape of the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, allowing the development of several new therapeutic regimens both for transplant-eligible and -ineligible patients. Among these new agents, lenalidomide has become one of the most commonly used in these patients. In this article, we review the current state-of-the-art of different induction and maintenance lenalidomide-containing regimens administered in transplant-eligible and -ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. We also discuss the safety profile and potential long-term side effects of this drug and analyze its utility in certain subgroups of patients like those with high-risk disease or different degrees of renal impairment.
