| Description | The results from the clinical trial AETHERA showed that consolidation therapy with brentuximab vedotin after high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation increases progression free survival in high-risk patients with relapsed/refractory classic Hodgkin lymphoma. In this multicenter retrospective analysis from seven hematological centers in the Czech republic we have analysed real-life data of 39 patients treated between January 2015 and December 2021. Brentuximab vedotin was not administered in the previous treatment and the patients were at increased risk of subsequent lymphoma relapse with at least one defined risk factor. The median cycles of brentuximab vedotin administered was 8 (1-16), 82 % of the patients achieved complete remission during the treatment. The median follow-up was 28 months, the 2-year progression-free survival and overal survival were 66,2 % (95 % CI 0,52-0,85) and 95 % (95 % CI 0,82-1,00), respectively. The most common reason for treatment discontinuation was completion of 16 cycles administered (20,5 %) relapse/progression of the lymphoma (15,4 %) and symptomatic peripheral neuropathy as well, that was observed in various severity grades in 38,5 % patients overall. Our data have confirmed efficacy and safety of brentuximab vedotin consolidation therapy in the real-life clinical practice. |
