Staging of pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma is currently based on the Ann Arbor classification, incorporating the Cotswold modifications and the Lugano classification. The Cotswold modifications provide guidelines for the use of CT and MRI. The Lugano classification emphasizes the importance of CT and PET/CT in evaluating both Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma but focuses on adult patients.

Childhood and adolescent classic Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) has long been a model for how we balance improved outcomes with increased toxicities in pediatric cancer. The recognition that unacceptable short- and long-term toxicities come with increasing intensity of treatment has led to a decades-long attempt to better understand the patient-specific factors that dictate responses and outcomes. Targeted immunotherapy has emerged as a promising adjunct to cancer treatment; it has been shown to improve outcomes for poorly responding patients, to salvage relapsed disease, and more recently, to replace more toxic therapy modalities such as chemotherapy and radiation while maintaining excellent outcomes.

In this study, a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of Rituximab and Chlorambucil (Rituximab-CMB) was synthesized. The average number of drug molecules attached per Rituximab molecule was determined using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, revealing a range of 4-6 drug molecules per antibody. To further improve the therapeutic potential of the ADC, it was radiolabeled with the therapeutic radionuclide Lu via a DOTA chelator, achieving a final radiochemical purity of over 95%.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with thoracic radiotherapy, but the specific risk with irradiating different cardiac substructures remains unknown.
Objectives: This study sought to examine the relationship between irradiation of cardiac substructures and the risk of clinically significant (grade ≥3) AF.
Methods: We analyzed data from patients who underwent definitive radiotherapy for localized cancers (non-small cell lung, breast, Hodgkin lymphoma, or esophageal) at our institution between 2004 and 2022.

Purpose: To contrast breast radiation exposure from chest radiotherapy in 2006-2021 with 1965-1997, and to compare breast cancer (BC) risk 25 years after treatment predicted by two models.
Methods: Radiation dose distributions to the breast from 101 chest radiotherapies given 2006-2021 for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) or other lymphoma in one German and two Dutch hospitals were compared with doses received by 505 Dutch HL patients treated 1965-1997 and sampled into a nested case-control study, weighted to represent a HL patient cohort. Dose-volume histograms, mean dose and doses to 10 breast segments were evaluated.
