The treatments used to treat lymphoma and multiple myeloma sometimes do not always work well or they may only work for a short period of time. This is why new treatments are being tested. This study will test a new combination of two drugs that are already approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of certain kinds of blood cancers. These drugs are romidepsin and lenalidomide. Both these drugs by themselves have been used to treat lymphoma or multiple myeloma. However, while these drugs are routinely used alone, this is the first time they will be tested together. The mechanism of action of both drugs is not well understood but both have been shown to to be effective by themselves in lymphoma and multiple myeloma.

Patients with HTLV1 ATLL and controlled CNS or meningeal involvement may be enrolled after discussion with the MSK principal investigator. * The following known cardiac abnormalities: * Congenital long QT syndrome. * QTc interval ≥ 480 milliseconds * A QTc interval between 480-499 msec in the presence of a bundle branch block (BBB) or pacemaker is are eligible in phase IIa after discussion with the MSK principal investigator * Myocardial infarction within 6 months of cycle one, day one (C1D1). Subjects with a history of myocardial infarction between 6 and 12 months prior to C1D1 who are asymptomatic and have had a negative cardiac risk assessment (treadmill stress test, nuclear medicine stress test, or stress echocardiogram) since the event may participate. * Other significant ECG abnormalities including 2nd degree atrio-ventricular (AV) block type II, 3rd degree AV block. Symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD), e.g., angina Canadian Class II-IV (see Appendix D). In any patient in whom there is doubt, the patient should have a stress imaging study and, if abnormal, angiography to define whether or not CAD is present. * An ECG recorded at screening showing evidence of cardiac ischemia (ST depression of ≥2 mm, measured from isoelectric line to the ST segment). If in any doubt, the patient should have a stress imaging study and, if abnormal, angiography to define whether or not CAD is present. * Congestive heart failure (CHF) that meets New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II to IV definitions (see Appendix E) and/or ejection fraction \<45% by MUGA, echocardiogram, or cardiac MRI. * A known history of sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), Torsade de Pointes, or cardiac arrest unless currently addressed with an automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator (AICD). Hypertrophic cardiomegaly or restrictive cardiomyopathy from prior treatment or other causes. * Uncontrolled hypertension, i.e., blood pressure (BP) of ≥170/95; patients who have a history of hypertension controlled by medication must be on a stable dose (for at least one month) and meet all other inclusion criteria. * Any cardiac arrhythmia requiring an anti-arrhythmic medication (excluding stable doses of beta-blockers) * Patients taking drugs leading to significant QTc prolongation unless able to be switched to non-QTc prolonging medication without risk of worsening underlying condition and meet all other inclusion criteria: Medications That May Cause QTc Prolongation). * Concomitant use of significant CYP3A4 inhibitors unless able to be switched to a non-CYP3A4 inhibiting medication without risk of worsening underlying condition and able to meet all other inclusion criteria.
