How Experts Treat Hodgkin Lymphoma
Shownotes
Stay up to date with the latest EHA guidelines on Hodgkin lymphoma. In this episode of EHA Unplugged, key guideline authors Prof. Dennis Eichenauer and Prof. Igor Aurer discuss the evidence reshaping the management of classic Hodgkin lymphoma.
The discussion highlights the guideline’s central shift: the integration of targeted therapies—brentuximab vedotin and PD-1 inhibitors such as nivolumab—into frontline treatment. The experts explain updated approaches to staging and risk assessment, PET-guided treatment in early-stage disease, BrECADD for younger patients with advanced disease, and nivolumab–AVD for older patients, alongside recommendations for relapsed or refractory disease and autologous stem cell transplantation.
They also consider survivorship, late effects, and the realistic prospects for chemotherapy-free, immune-based approaches.
Tune in for practical, evidence-based insights into improving outcomes while reducing long-term toxicity in Hodgkin lymphoma.
