Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pomalidomide group
Open label - all participants will receive pomalidomide 2mg orally once a day for 6 cycles (21 days on treatment and a 7 day rest period constitutes a cycle).
Pomalidomide 2 MG Oral Capsule [Pomalyst]
Pomalidomide is an oral immunomodulatory derivative of thalidomide. Thalidomide and its derivatives are small molecules with broad effects on immune activation, including T-cell activation and responsiveness. Pomalidomide augments T cell responsiveness and proliferation by several mechanisms, many mediated by transcriptional regulation downstream of its primary target, cereblon. Effects include increased production of IL-2 and interferon-γ (IFN-γ), enhanced CD4+ and CD8+ T cell co-stimulation.
