EHA 2026 | Insights into the KEYFORM-008 trial: favezelimab plus pembrolizumab versus chemotherapy for HL.

Guilherme Perini, MD, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, São Paulo, Brazil, presents findings from the Phase II KEYFORM-008 (NCT05508867) trial comparing the combination of favezelimab and pembrolizumab with standard chemotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Dr Perini notes that, despite favorable efficacy outcomes observed in the favezelimab plus pembrolizumab group, which suggest that the dual blockade of anti-LAG-3 and PD-1 can improve responses, implementation in clinical practice remains challenging. This interview took place at the 31st Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) in Stockholm, Sweden.
