JCO The primary analysis of the Early positron emission tomography (ePET) Response-Adapted Treatment in localized Hodgkin Lymphoma H10 Trial demonstrated that in ePET-negative patients, the risk of relapse increased when involved-node radiotherapy (INRT) was omitted and that in ePET-positive patients, switching from doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) to bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (BEACOPPesc) significantly improved 5-year progression-free survival (PFS). Here, we report the final results of a preplanned analysis at a 10-year follow-up. In the favorable (F) ePET-negative group, the 10-year PFS rates were 98.

In patients at increased risk of recurrence or progression after autotransplantation, or in cases of relapse after autotransplantation or after at least two lines of treatment when intensive multidrug therapy is no longer a treatment option, targeted anti-CD30 therapy with brentuximab vedotin may be proposed. Brentuximab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody directed against CD30 and coupled with an anti-microtubule cytotoxic agent, monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE).

Occasionally, FL is associated with tumoral epidural compression and management of these patients remain poorly codified. This study aims to report incidence, clinical characteristics, management and outcomes of patients with FL and tumoral epidural compression.
