5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase 2 clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of bendamustine and brentuximab vedotin as a first salvage therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma or PTCL.
A total of 25 patients with PTCL, and 40 with Hodgkin's lymphoma are expected to be treated according to this treatment protocol.
Detailed Description
In the study, intravenous bendamustine will be administered at a dose of 90 mg/m2 on day 1 and 2 and brentuximab will be given intravenously at a total dose of 1.8 mg/kg on day 1 of each 21 days-based cycle, for 6 cycles. All patients achieving a CR can be considered eligible to peripheral blood stem cell mobilization (to be performed with granulocytecolony stimulating factor alone) and may proceed to an ASCT at any time after cycle 4.
