ICML 2023 | Pembrolizumab monotherapy for older/ABVD-ineligible patients with Hodgkin lymphoma

Currently, there is no standard of care for older patients who develop classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), and conventional chemotherapy is associated with several toxicities. In this video, Michael Dickinson, MBBS, DMedSc, FRACP, FRACPA, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Melbourne, Australia, shares some insights into a study evaluating the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with cHL ineligible for frontline ABVD. Prof. Dickinson discusses the inclusion criteria for this trial, and further summarizes the results, including the progression-free and overall survival (PFS; OS) rates observed. This interview took place at the 17th International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma (ICML), held in Lugano, Switzerland.
