RESUMO
Patients with advanced-stage Hodgkin lymphoma treated with ABVD who have a positive interim FDG-PET (iPET) have a poor prognosis. Escalation to BEACOPP has been shown to improve progression-free survival (PFS). However, randomized trials are lacking to determine the best strategy for intensification. We report on A-AVD escalation treatment outcomes for 15 iPET-positive patients post-ABVD. Overall response and complete response rates were 80% and 60%, respectively. Four patients underwent salvage therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. At a median 17-month follow-up, all patients are alive, 87% in complete remission, and 1-year PFS was 57.8%. For patients ineligible for BEACOPP due to age, comorbidities, or preference, A-AVD escalation may be a viable alternative.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD30 antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) brentuximab vedotin (BV) combined with chemotherapy in children with refractory or relapsed classic Hodgkin's lymphoma (R/R cHL). Methods: Clinical data (including age, gender, B symptoms, clinical stage, previous treatment, etc.) of the 10 R/R cHL children diagnosed and treated at Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from October 2021 to August 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the different intensity of chemotherapy drugs, the dose of BV applied in the same course of treatment was 1.8 mg/kg for BV applied once every 3 weeks, and 1.2 mg/kg for BV applied once every 2 weeks. All 10 patients received at least 2 cycles of BV combined with chemotherapy and were evaluated every 2 cycles. The patients were followed up until May 31, 2024. The infusion reactions and adverse reactions after treatment were recorded. Results: In all 10 patients, there were 7 males and 3 females, the age ranged from 5.3-16.9 years, and there were 6 cases of refractory and 4 cases of relapsed. There were 6 cases of nodular sclerosis type, 2 cases of mixed cell type, 1 case of lymphocyte-rich type, and 1 case of lymphodepletion type. There were 5 cases of stage â £ and 5 cases of stage â ¢. Previous treatment was mainly chemotherapy, 4 cases received radiotherapy and 1 case received programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody therapy. The follow-up time ranged from 9 to 27 months. A total of 43 courses with 49 doses of BV alone or combined with chemotherapy were recorded, and the number of courses was 2 to 10 times. All 10 children responded to the treatment, and 9 achieved complete remission. BV infusion was successfully completed in all cases. A total of 28 cases of grade 3 or above adverse events were recorded, mainly myelosuppression, all of which were related to chemotherapy and did not affect sequential treatment. Conclusion: Brentuximab vedotin has demonstrated efficacy and a tolerable safety profile in the treatment of refractory and relapsed CD30-positive Hodgkin's lymphoma in children.

BACKGROUND: Intensified systemic chemotherapy has the highest primary cure rate for advanced-stage, classical Hodgkin lymphoma but this comes with a cost of severe and potentially life long, persisting toxicities. With the new regimen of brentuximab vedotin, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, dacarbazine, and dexamethasone (BrECADD), we aimed to improve the risk-to-benefit ratio of treatment of advanced-stage, classical Hodgkin lymphoma guided by PET after two cycles. METHODS: This randomised, multicentre, parallel, open-label, phase 3 trial was done in 233 trial sites across nine countries. Eligible patients were adults (aged ≤60 years) with newly diagnosed, advanced-stage, classical Hodgkin lymphoma (ie, Ann Arbor stage III/IV, stage II with B symptoms, and either one or both risk factors of large mediastinal mass and extranodal lesions). Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to four or six cycles (21-day intervals) of escalated doses of etoposide (200 mg/m2 intravenously on days 1-3), doxorubicin (35 mg/m2 intravenously on day 1), and cyclophosphamide (1250 mg/m2 intravenously on day 1), and standard doses of bleomycin (10 mg/m2 intravenously on day 8), vincristine (1·4 mg/m2 intravenously on day 8), procarbazine (100 mg/m2 orally on days 1-7), and prednisone (40 mg/m2 orally on days 1-14; eBEACOPP) or BrECADD, guided by PET after two cycles. Patients and investigators were not masked to treatment assignment. Hierarchical coprimary objectives were to show (1) improved tolerability defined by treatment-related morbidity and (2) non-inferior efficacy defined by progression-free survival with an absolute non-inferiority margin of 6 percentage points of BrECADD compared with eBEACOPP. An additional test of superiority of progression-free survival was to be done if non-inferiority had been established. Analyses were done by intention to treat; the treatment-related morbidity assessment required documentation of at least one chemotherapy cycle. This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02661503). FINDINGS: Between July 22, 2016, and Aug 27, 2020, 1500 patients were enrolled, of whom 749 were randomly assigned to BrECADD and 751 to eBEACOPP. 1482 patients were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. The median age of patients was 31 years (IQR 24-42). 838 (56%) of 1482 patients were male and 644 (44%) were female. Most patients were White (1352 [91%] of 1482). Treatment-related morbidity was significantly lower with BrECADD (312 [42%] of 738 patients) than with eBEACOPP (430 [59%] of 732 patients; relative risk 0·72 [95% CI 0·65-0·80]; p<0·0001). At a median follow-up of 48 months, BrECADD improved progression-free survival with a hazard ratio of 0·66 (0·45-0·97; p=0·035); 4-year progression-free survival estimates were 94·3% (95% CI 92·6-96·1) for BrECADD and 90·9% (88·7-93·1) for eBEACOPP. 4-year overall survival rates were 98·6% (97·7-99·5) and 98·2% (97·2-99·3), respectively. INTERPRETATION: BrECADD guided by PET after two cycles is better tolerated and more effective than eBEACOPP in first-line treatment of adult patients with advanced-stage, classical Hodgkin lymphoma.

Recent advancements in comprehending peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) validate and broaden our perspective, highlighting their diverse nature and the varying molecular mechanisms underlying the entities. Based on a comprehensive accumulated understanding, the PTCLs currently overcome the most challenging features of any disease: rarity, incredible heterogeneity, and a lack of any established standard of care. The treatments deployed in the front-line are extrapolated from regimens developed for other diseases. The recent approval of the three drugs brentuximab vedotin (BV), pralatrexate, and belinostat for patients with relapsed or refractory disease has provided clues about pathophysiology and future directions, though challenges satisfying post-marketing requirements (PMR) for those accelerated approvals have led to one of those drugs being withdrawn and put the other two in jeopardy. Edits of the front-line regimens, often called CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone)-plus approaches, look more like CHOP-minus strategies, as the toxicity of five-drug regimens often reduces the dose intensity of the added 'novel' drug, nullifying any hope of an advance. The turmoil in the field produced by the aforementioned, coupled with an ever-changing classification, has left the field uncertain about the path forward. Despite these challenges, empiric findings from studies of novel drug approaches, coupled with a logic emerging from studies of PTCL lymphomagenesis, have begun to illuminate, albeit faintly for some, a potential direction. The empiric finding that drugs targeting the discrete components of the PTCL epigenome, coupled with the description of multiple mutations in genes that govern epigenetic biology, offers, at the very least, an opportunity to finally be hypothesis-driven. The most recent recognition that the only combination of drugs shown to markedly improve progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with relapsed disease is one based on dual targeting of different and discrete components of that epigenetic biology has established a possibility that circumnavigating chemotherapy addition studies is both plausible, feasible, and likely the best prospect for a quantum advance in this disease. Herein, we analyze PTCL through a 2025 lens, highlighting and underscoring walls that have impeded progress. We will critically explore all the clues and the panoramic view of PTCL research.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Historically, salvage chemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (HDT/ASCT) was the mainstay approach for relapsed or refractory classic HL. The emergence of novel agents for HL, such as brentuximab vedotin and programmed death-1 (PD-1) blockade has revolutionized therapeutic strategies, yielding excellent results. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of new salvage therapies and offer insights into forthcoming therapeutic options. RECENT FINDINGS: The incorporation of brentuximab vedotin and PD-1 blockade into salvage therapy before HDT/ASCT has led to markedly improved outcomes. Notably, PD-1 based salvage studies yield posttransplant 2-year progression-free survival rates approaching 90%, marking a significant advancement in the treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Studies are beginning to explore nontransplant treatment approaches following front-line treatment failure and may identify certain risk groups eligible for these strategies. SUMMARY: The landscape of HL treatment is rapidly evolving, leading to significant changes in the standard of care. Novel agents are now administered earlier in the disease course, resulting in higher cure rates. The focus of treatment is shifting towards achieving cure with minimal toxicity, reducing exposure to various agents, and advancing research in optimizing treatment sequencing and patient selection for less intensive therapies.

Cost-effectiveness analyses are required for therapies within Canada's universal healthcare system, leading to delays relative to U.S. healthcare. Patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) generally have an excellent prognosis, but those who relapse after or are ineligible for transplant benefit from novel therapies, including brentuximab vedotin (BV). BV was FDA-approved in 2011 but not Canadian-funded until 2014. To assess the impact of access delays, we compared changes in survival for U.S. (by insurer) and Canadian patients in periods pre/post-U.S. approval. Patients were 16-64 years, diagnosed with HL in 2007-2010 (Period 1) and 2011-2014 (Period 2) from the U.S. SEER and Canadian Cancer Registries. Approval date (surrogate) was utilized as therapy was unavailable in registries. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and adjusted Cox regression models compared survival between periods by insurance category. Among 12,003 U.S. and 4210 Canadian patients, survival was better in U.S. patients (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 0.87 (95%CI 0.77-0.98)) between periods; improvement in Canadian patients (aHR 0.84 (95%CI 0.69-1.03) was similar but non-significant. Comparisons between insurers showed survival was significantly worse for U.S. uninsured and Medicaid vs. U.S. privately insured and Canadian patients. Given the increasingly complex nature of oncologic funding, this merits further investigation to ensure equity in access to therapy developments.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent the forefront of the next generation of biopharmaceuticals. An ADC typically comprises an antibody covalently linked to a cytotoxic drug via a linker, resulting in a highly heterogeneous product. This study focuses on the analysis of a custom-made cysteine-linked ADC. Initially, we developed a LC-MS-based characterization workflow using brentuximab vedotin (Adcetris®), encompassing native intact MS, analysis of reduced chains and subunits under denaturing condition, peptide mapping and online strong cation exchange chromatography coupled with UV and mass spectrometry detection (SCX-UV-MS) applied for brentuximab vedotin first time reported. Subsequently, we applied this in-depth characterization workflow to a custom-made cysteine-linked ADC. The measured drug-to-antibody ratio(DAR) of this ADC is 6.9, further analysis shown that there is a small amount of unexpected over-conjugation. Over-conjugation sites were successfully identified using multiple UHPLC-MS based characterization techniques. Also, one competitively cysteine-conjugated impurity was observed in native intact MS results, by combing native intact MS, reduced chains, subunit analysis and peptide mapping results, the impurity conjugation sites were also identified. Since this molecule is at early development stage, this provides important information for conjugation process improvement and link-drug material purification. SCX-UV-MS approach can separate the custom-made cysteine-linked ADC carrying different payloads and reduce the complexity of the spectra. The integrated approach underscores the significance of combining the SCX-UV-MS online coupling technique with other characterization methods to elucidate the heterogeneity of cysteine-linked ADCs.

To investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with targeting CD30-expressing Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and immune checkpoint modulation induced by combination therapies of CTLA4 and PD1, we leveraged Phase 1/2 multicenter open-label trial NCT01896999 that enrolled patients with refractory or relapsed HL (R/R HL). Using peripheral blood, we assessed soluble proteins, cell composition, T-cell clonality, and tumor antigen-specific antibodies in 54 patients enrolled in the phase 1 component of the trial. NCT01896999 reported high (>75%) overall objective response rates with brentuximab vedotin (BV) in combination with ipilimumab (I) and/or nivolumab (N) in patients with R/R HL. We observed a durable increase in soluble PD1 and plasmacytoid dendritic cells as well as decreases in plasma CCL17, ANGPT2, MMP12, IL13, and CXCL13 in N-containing regimens (BV + N and BV + I + N) compared with BV + I (P < 0.05). Nonresponders and patients with short progression-free survival showed elevated CXCL9, CXCL13, CD5, CCL17, adenosine-deaminase, and MUC16 at baseline or after one treatment cycle and a higher prevalence of NY-ESO-1-specific autoantibodies (P < 0.05). The results suggest a circulating tumor-immune-derived signature of BV ± I ± N treatment resistance that may be useful for patient stratification in combination checkpoint therapy. SIGNIFICANCE: Identification of multi-omic immune markers from peripheral blood may help elucidate resistance mechanisms to checkpoint inhibitor and antibody-drug conjugate combinations with potential implications for treatment decisions in relapsed HL.

This report presents a case involving a woman aged >65 years who had been diagnosed with marginal zone lymphoma 3 years prior. The patient was hospitalized with enlarged inguinal lymph nodes, and pathological examination revealed that the lymphoma had transformed into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. After two cycles of brentuximab vedotin in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (BV-R-CHP) chemotherapy, the patient achieved complete remission. This treatment was followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and lenalidomide maintenance therapy. At the last follow-up, the patient had been in continuous remission for 24 months. This case study suggests that the utilization of BV and R-CHP in conjunction can result in rapid remission, and it can be followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and maintenance therapy with lenalidomide. This treatment approach exhibits potential as a viable option for older individuals with transformed lymphoma.

Rash is one of the commonly observed adverse events with brentuximab vedotin (BV), a CD30-targeted antibody-drug conjugate used to treat cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). However, clinical and histopathologic characterization of BV-associated rash (BVAR) is limited. Distinguishing BVAR from a patient's underlying CTCL can be challenging and can lead to treatment interruptions or even premature drug discontinuation. We performed a thorough clinical and histopathologic retrospective characterization of BVAR from a single institution. Utilizing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and T-cell receptor high-throughput sequencing (TCR-HTS), we were able to isolate skin biopsy specimens from rash clinically suggestive of BVAR that also lacked a dominant TCR clone. A retrospective evaluation was performed of 26 biopsy specimens from 14 patients. Clinical features of BVAR included predominantly morbilliform or maculopapular morphology, delayed onset, and the trend toward moderate to severe classification, often requiring oral steroids. Most histopathologic specimens (25/26) showed spongiotic dermatitis as the primary reaction pattern. Many cases showed subtle findings to support a background interface or lichenoid eruption. Langerhans cell microabscesses were seen in one-fourth of specimens, and eosinophils were present in over one-half of the specimens. There were focal features mimicking CTCL, but these were not prominent. In 17 specimens with immunohistochemistry, the CD4:CD8 ratio in intraepidermal lymphocytes was relatively normal (1-6:1) in 65% (11/17) and 1:1 in 35% (6/17), demonstrating a trend toward increased CD8-positive cells compared with baseline CTCL. We have identified features that can help distinguish BVAR from a patient's CTCL, which can, in turn, help guide appropriate clinical management.

We report a case of difficult-to-control mycosis fungoides (MF), where the role of the dental surgeon was crucial for the control and prognosis of the disease. A 62-year-old female patient diagnosed with MF had a previous record of red patches and small raised bumps on the face, along with a cancerous growth in the cervical and vulvar region. The patient was initially treated with methotrexate and local radiotherapy without resolution. Chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone was then started (CHOP protocol). The dental team of a reference hospital was consulted to evaluate swelling in the anterior region of the palate, which had been developing for two months, reporting discomfort when eating. The role of the dentistry team was fundamental in the differential diagnosis of oral lesions with dental infections, second neoplasia, or even a new site of disease manifestation, in addition to controlling mucosal changes resulting from chemotherapy. After ruling out dental infection, the dentistry team performed a lesion biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. The histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis showed atypical lymphoid infiltration of T cells (CD3+/CD4+/CD7-/CD8-), coexpression of CD25, and presence of CD30 cells, corresponding to the finding for MF. Identifying CD30 + allowed for a new chemotherapy protocol with brentuximab vedotin (BV) combined with gemcitabine. This protocol effectively controlled MF, which previous protocols had failed to do. The diagnosis by the dental team was essential for therapeutic change and improvement of the patient's clinical condition without the need for invasive medical procedures.

Brentuximab vedotin (BV), a conjugate of anti-CD30 antibody and monomethyl auristatin E, has emerged as a promising treatment option for refractory CD30+ mycosis fungoides (MF) and primary cutaneous anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (pcALCL). BV has been shown to be safe and effective in treating Hodgkin's lymphoma and peripheral T-cell lymphoma. This multicenter, prospective, single-arm phase I/II study evaluated the efficacy of BV in Japanese patients with CD30+ cutaneous lymphomas, namely CD30+ cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Participants were divided into two groups: those with CD30+ MF or pcALCL (cohort 1, n = 13) and those with CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders other than those in cohort 1 (cohort 2, n = 3). The studied population included the full analysis set (FAS), modified FAS (mFAS), and safety analysis set (SAF). These sets were identified in cohorts 1 and 1 + 2 and labeled FAS1 and FAS2, mFAS1 and mFAS2, and SAF1 and SAF2, respectively. Each treatment cycle lasted 3 weeks, and BV was continued for up to 16 cycles after the third cycle based on treatment response. The primary endpoint was the 4-month objective response rate (ORR4) determined by the Independent Review Forum (IRF). ORR4 was 69.2% for FAS1 and 62.5% for FAS2 (P < 0.0001). Secondary endpoints of ORR, assessed using the global response score (53.8% in FAS1) and modified severity-weighted assessment tool (62.5% in FAS1), using the IRF, provided results comparable to the primary findings. The incidence of ≥grade 3 adverse events (≥15%) in SAF1 was peripheral neuropathy in three patients (23%) and fever and eosinophilia in two patients (15%). In conclusion, BV showed favorable efficacy, tolerability, and safety profile in Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory CD30+ primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The trial was registered with University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry, Japan (protocol ID: UMIN000034205).

INTRODUCTION: Despite clear advancements in the management of classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) over the past decade including better risk stratification, the usage of 18F-flurodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)-guided approaches and incorporation of novel agents, approximately one-third of the patients will relapse. Important themes have been recently explored in the first salvage setting including the recognition of the positive prognostic value of a negative pre-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) FDG-PET response and the incorporation of novel agents such as brentuximab vedotin (BV) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) as salvage regimens to improve patient outcomes. AREAS COVERED: The evolving treatment paradigm in optimizing salvage therapy in relapsed refractory cHL (RR-cHL) is discussed, including a vision to the future. The methodology included a literature search on PubMed using keywords. Selected articles were screened and evaluated by the authors of this review. EXPERT OPINION: Achieving a complete remission by FDG-PET pre-ASCT is the most important prognostic factor in obtaining disease control and subsequent cure, and therefore should be a key goal of any salvage regimen. Although data from randomized controlled trials are currently lacking, retrospective evidence demonstrate superior event free survival with CPI-based regimens compared to conventional chemotherapy or BV-based therapy.

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is among the most commonly occurring malignancies in adolescents. For relapsed/refractory disease, many regimens have been proposed. Novel agents are increasingly used, like brentuximab vedotin (BV), an antiCD30 antibody-drug conjugate, used as a single agent or in combination with classic regimens mainly in adults, while limited is the experience in pediatrics. We report here on 2 boys with aggressive and high-risk relapsed HL, successfully treated with the BV plus dexamethasone, high-dose cytarabine, cisplatin regimen as induction salvage treatment. Our experience provides real-world evidence on the use of BV-dexamethasone, high-dose cytarabine, cisplatin as first-line salvage therapy for relapsed/refractory HL and expands the current therapeutic choices.

This systematic literature review evaluated frontline treatment burden in pediatric and adolescent/young adult (AYA) patients with high-risk classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) among studies originating from the United States. Data were extracted from 32 publications (screened: total, n = 3115; full-text, n = 98) representing 12 studies (randomized controlled trials [RCTs], n = 2; non-comparative, non-randomized, n = 7; observational, n = 3). High-risk disease definitions varied across studies. Five-year event-free survival (EFS)/progression-free survival (PFS) was 86%-100% and 79%-94%, and complete response rates were 35%-100% and 5%-64% for brentuximab vedotin (BV)-containing and chemotherapy-alone regimens, respectively. In identified RCTs, BV-containing compared with chemotherapy-alone regimens demonstrated significantly longer 3-year EFS/5-year PFS. Hematological and peripheral neuropathy were the most commonly reported adverse events of interest, although safety data were inconsistently reported. Few studies evaluated humanistic and no studies evaluated economic burden. Results from studies with the highest quality of evidence indicate an EFS/PFS benefit for frontline BV-containing versus chemotherapy-alone regimens for pediatric/AYA patients with high-risk cHL.

This review discusses current trends in the treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma, focusing on optimizing therapy outcomes while minimizing toxicity. We summarize advances made by the incorporation of Brentuximab Vedotin into first line therapy for advanced stage Hodgkin lymphoma. Similarly, the incorporation of checkpoint-inhibition into first-line therapy holds great promise and early results suggest superior efficacy with reduced toxicity. In relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma, salvage chemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation remains the standard approach. However, the remarkable efficacy of checkpoint inhibition in this setting has the potential to redefine treatment paradigms and obviate the need for HD-ASCT in select patients. Finally, we discuss the evolving landscape of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma and reclassification to nodular lymphocyte predominant B-cell lymphoma, with increasing recognition of its distinct characteristics and treatment strategies.
