Article Synopsis
  • Stage IIB Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients with certain risk factors have a poor prognosis and are treated either as limited or advanced stage, with differing clinical trials comparing these treatment approaches.
  • A study involving 148 patients showed that baseline total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) and responses after two cycles of chemotherapy significantly influenced progression-free survival rates, with a median follow-up of 4.1 years showing PFS rates around 88%.
  • The findings suggest that both upfront ABVD plus radiation therapy and upfront escBEACOPP without radiotherapy yield similar outcomes in these high-risk patients, while TMTV can effectively stratify their risk at baseline.

Purpose: The AHL2011 study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01358747) demonstrated that a positron emission tomography (PET)-driven de-escalation strategy after two cycles of bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (BEACOPP) provides similar progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) and reduces early toxicity compared with a nonmonitored standard treatment. Here, we report, with a prolonged follow-up, the final study results.
