Multiple trials have demonstrated durable responses in patients receiving checkpoint inhibitors such as pembrolizumab with ICE or GVD chemotherapy and nivolumab with brentuximab vedotin as a salvage regimens. Further research will additionally reveal the potential of checkpoint inhibitors in the frontline setting.
