In the pivotal study ECHELON-1, brentuximab vedotin (BV), doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A + AVD) demonstrated superior efficacy compared with bleomycin + AVD for the treatment of advanced-stage classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). However, there are minimal available data regarding the frequency of dose reductions or omission of BV during curative therapy and the potential impact on patient outcomes. In a real-world analysis, we retrospectively reviewed the characteristics and outcomes of 179 patients with stage III or IV cHL treated with frontline A + AVD from January 2010 to April 2022.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of patients with vCTCL among patients with a confirmed histopathologic diagnosis of CTCL seen at the Winship Cancer Institute in Emory University.
Background: Risk factors for progression to advanced-stage mycosis fungoides (MF) are poorly defined.
Methods: The authors performed a single-center, retrospective cohort study among patients with MF at an academic medical center from 1990 to 2020 to identify clinical variables associated with progression to advanced-stage MF (stage IIB-IVB), and 388 patients who had a clinicopathologic diagnosis of early stage (IA-IIA) MF were identified from their cutaneous lymphoma database. Baseline clinical characteristics, laboratory values, imaging, and blood flow cytometry or T-cell receptor gene rearrangement (TCR) data were collected.
