Brentuximab vedotin in patients with hodgkin lymphoma and a failed allogeneic stem cell transplantation: results from a named patient program at four italian centers

Brentuximab vedotin (BV) has demonstrated an extraordinary efficacy in heavily pretreated classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients, targeting CD30-positive cells; however, limited data have been reported on the efficacy of BV in cHL patients failing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of BV in a multicenter setting of cHL relapsing or progressing after allo-SCT.
