Anti-PD-1 therapy provides high response rates in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients who have relapsed or are refractory (R/R) to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and brentuximab vedotin (BV), but median progression free survival (PFS) is only one year. The efficacy of treatment following anti-PD-1 is not well known. In this context, the optimal treatment for patients who failed after anti-PD-1 therapy is an issue. To better assess their outcome, the investigators retrospectively analyzed the characteristics and outcome of patients from 14 LYSA (The Lymphoma Study Association) centers who lost response to anti-PD-1 therapy and received additional CT.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
30
Evaluate the improvement in response from the end of anti-PD-1 monotherapy to the first evaluation after introduction of CT alone (Group 1) or combined with anti-PD-1 (Group 2).
Centre Hospitalier Lyon Sud
Pierre-Bénite, France
Overall response rate after re-exposure to chemotherapy
Patient evaluation was timed by treating physicians according to the policy of each center, and all patients were evaluated after a median of 10 weeks (min 7 weeks, max 12 weeks) with PET/CT using Lugano criteria
Time frame: 10 weeks
Best response obtained (Group 1)
the best response obtained with CT after anti-PD-1
Time frame: 10 weeks
Best response obtained (Group 2)
the best response obtained with CT after the combination anti-PD-1 and CT
Time frame: 10 weeks
The toxicities experienced during CT or anti-PD-1 plus CT combination
The toxicities were graded retrospectively according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for AEs (version 4.0).
Time frame: 10 weeks
Outcomes including PFS
PFS was defined as the time from first relapse, or progression, to the next event (defined as either second relapse/progression, change of therapy, or death from any cause)
Time frame: up to 12 months
Outcomes including overall survival (OS).
OS was defined as the time from first relapse, or progression, to death from any cause.
Time frame: up to 24 months
