Hodgkin's lymphoma therapy: past, present, and future

Abstract: Importance of the field-The treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) with the use of radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy has been one of the success stories of modern oncology. HL therapy has been the paradigm for the systematic evaluation of different curative modalities resulting in cure for the majority of patients. The current focus is on designing initial therapeutic strategies which retain efficacy and minimize long-term toxicity. Appropriate use of pathologic, clinical, biologic and radiologic prognostic f… Show more

“…32 Although IPS is the standard stratification system for survival in patients with advanced-stage disease, it is limited to selecting distinct subgroups of patients at very high risk of recurrence. 65 This result suggests that MET or MST1R positivity provides additional prognostic information, independent of IPS.…”

“…1, 2). However, depending on initial stage and first-line therapy, approximately 10% to 30% of patients presenting with cHL are expected to become refractory to initial therapy or to relapse (3,4). Even at first relapse, approximately 50% of patients can be cured with high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT; ref.…”

“…The integration of the new biologic markers evaluated in HL, that clearly driving force for an abnormal local and systemic antitumor immunity in HL, make of HL an ideal candidate for immunotherapeutic strategies (Rathore & Kadin, 2010;Younes, 2009). The pro-survival and pro-death receptors expressed by tumoral cells are currently being explored for novel treatment strategies by using a variety of naked and conjugated monoclonal antibodies.…”
