Summary

This study tests whether a drug called pembrolizumab followed by targeted radiation can cure people with early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned or not responded to initial treatment. About 22 participants will receive this combination to see if it works well and avoids the need for more chemotherapy or a stem cell transplant. The goal is a cure with fewer side effects.
