Brentuximab Vedotin Plus AD in Non-bulky Limited Stage Hodgkin Lymphoma

Summary

Limited stage Hodgkin lymphoma is a highly curable disease, but standard treatment with ABVD chemotherapy and radiation can lead to late risks of secondary cancers, lung injury, heart injury, and others. This trial eliminates radiation therapy and reduces intensity of chemotherapy by incorporating the highly active FDA-approved targeted therapy brentuximab vedotin, an antibody-drug conjugate specifically against the lymphoma cells, combined with the standard chemotherapy drugs Adriamycin and Dacarbazine (AD).
