The Dutchman Donyell Malen scored a brace, while Argentina's Matías Soulé and Portugal's Rodrigo Mora each added one goal.
With this victory, Roma rose to the top of the table, sharing the lead with four other teams but ranking first on goal difference.
This marks Roma's fifth consecutive win against Lecce, whose points total remains at three after a promising start that included a 2-0 away victory over Venezia.
