Brief Summary
A pilot phase II study with brentuximab vedotin as pre-ASCT induction therapy in relapsed/refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma patients non-responding to IGEV salvage treatment.
Detailed Description
Brentuximab vedotin emerged as active single-agent in the treatment of relapsed or refractory HL. Some patients don't reach a complete response after salvage treatment with IGEV (ifosfamide, gemcitab...
