Paul Harker-Murray, MD, PhD, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, discusses the outcomes of a Phase II study, CheckMate 744 (NCT02927769), which evaluated a risk-stratified, response-adapted salvage treatment for pediatric and young adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). The study aimed to achieve high event-free survival (EFS) rates while minimizing late toxicity by avoiding high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT). The results showed that patients in the low-risk cohort could achieve high complete molecular response rates without high-dose chemotherapy and autoSCT. This interview took place at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2023 Annual Congress in Chicago, IL.
