Known active infection requiring systemic anti-infective treatment (prophylactic treatment is permitted). Prior malignancies within the previous 3 years, other than previously treated squamous and basal cell carcinomas of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast or another malignancy that is considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence (e.g., very low and low risk prostate cancer in active surveillance). Prior major surgical procedure or radiation therapy within 4 weeks of the initiation of STAR-LLD (this does not include limited course of radiation used for management of bone pain within 7 days of initiation of STAR-LLD). Any other condition that precludes adequate understanding, cooperation, and compliance with study procedures or any condition that could pose a risk to the patient's safety, as per the Investigator's judgment.

Brief Summary
Primary Objective • Assess the safety and tolerability of low-dose lenalidomide administered by continuous subcutaneous (SC) infusion (STAR-LLD) in combination with dexamethasone and a proteasome inhibitor (PI). Secondary Objectives To assess the immunologic activity of natural killer (NK) cells and T cells for innate and humoral immunity. To establish the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of STAR-LLD at a defined infusion rate targeting steady-state blood concentrations. To determine pharmacodynamic (PD) changes with STAR-LLD in a panel of biomarkers associated with clinical response to lenalidomide. Evaluate changes in efficacy indicators including objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and duration of response (DOR). Exploratory Objective To assess the impact of STAR-LLD on patient reported symptoms and outcomes. Primary Endpoints The grade, frequency, and relationship of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including adverse events of special interest (AESIs): (gastrointestinal [GI] toxicity, fatigue, hematologic toxicity, rash (non-infusion site). The observation of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of STAR-LLD during Cycle 1. Secondary Endpoints Immune profiles, functional assays for NK cell activation and antigen specific T-cell activity. Blood concentrations of lenalidomide at on Day 1 and at steady state. Changes in biomarkers during treatment. Rate of complete response, very good partial response (VGPR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease. Determination of ORR, PFS, and DOR
