The prognosis is poor for relapsed or refractory (R/R) classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) patients. The brentuximab vedotin (Bv) and bendamustine (B) combination has been used as a preferable salvage regimen in R/R cHL patient trials. We retrospectively evaluated response rates, toxicities, and the survival in R/R cHL patients treated with the BvB combination. In a multi-centre real-life study, 61 R/R HL patients received intravenous doses of 1.8 mg/kg Bv on the first day plus 90 mg/m B on the first and second days of a 21-day cycle as a second-line or beyond-salvage regimen. Patients' median age at BvB initiation was 33 (range: 18-76 years). BvB was given as median third-line treatment for a median of four cycles (range: 2-11). The overall and complete response rates were 82% and 68.9%, respectively. After BvB initiation, the median follow-up was 14 months, and one- and two-year overall survival rates were 85% and 72%, respectively. Grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (24.6%), lymphopenia (40%), thrombocytopenia (13%), anaemia (13%), infusion reactions (8.2%), neuropathy (6.5%), and others. The BvB combination could be given as salvage regimen aiming a bridge to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), in patients relapse after ASCT or to transplant-ineligible patients with manageable toxicity profiles.
对于复发或难治性(R/R)经典霍奇金淋巴瘤(cHL)患者,预后较差。 Brentuximab vedotin(Bv)和苯达莫司汀(B)联合治疗已被用作 R/R cHL 患者试验中的首选挽救方案。我们回顾性评估了 R/R cHL 患者接受 BvB 联合治疗的反应率、毒性和生存情况。在一项多中心真实世界研究中,61 例 R/R HL 患者接受静脉注射 1.8 mg/kg Bv,第 1 天和第 2 天各 90 mg/m2 B,每 21 天为一个周期,作为二线或以上挽救方案。患者接受 BvB 治疗时的中位年龄为 33 岁(范围:18-76 岁)。BvB 作为中位三线治疗,中位数治疗 4 个周期(范围:2-11)。总体反应率和完全反应率分别为 82%和 68.9%。接受 BvB 治疗后,中位随访时间为 14 个月,1 年和 2 年的总生存率分别为 85%和 72%。3/4 级毒性包括中性粒细胞减少症(24.6%)、淋巴细胞减少症(40%)、血小板减少症(13%)、贫血(13%)、输注反应(8.2%)、周围神经病变(6.5%)和其他。BvB 联合治疗可作为挽救方案,旨在为 ASCT 后复发的患者或不适合移植的患者提供桥接治疗,这些患者具有可管理的毒性特征。
