New hope for tough-to-treat hodgkin lymphoma patients

NCT ID NCT02227199

Summary

This study tested a combination of a targeted cancer drug (brentuximab vedotin) with three chemotherapy drugs for patients whose Hodgkin lymphoma returned or didn't respond to previous treatment. The trial aimed to find the safest dose and see how well this combination worked to control the cancer. Researchers enrolled 45 patients to determine if this approach could help prepare patients for a stem cell transplant.
