  * NOTE: Growth factor is not permitted within 14 days of ANC assessment unless cytopenia is secondary to disease involvement

• Within 14 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy unless otherwise stated: Platelets >= 75,000/mm^3

  * NOTE: Platelet transfusions are not permitted within 14 days of platelet assessment unless cytopenia is secondary to disease involvement

• Within 14 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy unless otherwise stated: Creatinine clearance of >= 60 mL/min per 24 hour urine test or the Cockcroft-Gault formula
• Within 14 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy unless otherwise stated: Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP): negative urine or serum pregnancy test; if the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required
• Agreement by WOCBP and males of childbearing potential to use an effective method of birth control or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through at least 6 months after the last dose of protocol therapy * Childbearing potential defined as not being surgically sterilized (men and women) or have not been free from menses for > 1 year (women only)

Exclusion Criteria:

• Stem cell transplantation
• Monoclonal antibody within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy
• Any systemic therapy, including monoclonal antibody within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) of initiating day 1 of protocol therapy
• Any skin-directed therapy within 14 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy
• Any radiation therapy within 21 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy

• Immunosuppressive medication within 14 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy; the following are exceptions to this criterion:

  • Intranasal, inhaled, topical or local steroid injections (e.g., intra-articular injection) and are on stable dose for at least 28 days
  • Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses of < 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent
• Live, attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy

• Disease free of prior malignancies for >= 5 years with the exception of:

  • Currently treated squamous cell and basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or
  • Carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or
  • Surgically removed melanoma in situ of the skin (stage 0) with histological confirmed free margins of excision , or
  • Prostate cancer (T1a or T1b using the TNM [tumor, nodes, metastasis] clinical staging system) that has/have been surgically cured, or
  • Any other malignancy that has/have been curatively treated with surgery and/or localized radiation
• Allergic reaction/hypersensitivity to lenalidomide or history of anaphylactic shock to brentuximab vedotin in the past
• Female only: pregnant or breastfeeding

• Incidence of gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of lenalidomide
• Any other condition that would, in the investigator's judgment, contraindicate the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures, e.g., infection/inflammation, intestinal obstruction, unable to swallow medication, social/psychological issues, etc.
• Prospective participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, may not be able to comply with all study procedures (including compliance issues related to feasibility/logistics)
