Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (ASCT) is the standard curative treatment for patients with high-risk relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R HL). The AETHERA study showed survival gain with Brentuximab Vedotin (BV) maintenance after ASCT in BV-naive patients, which was recently confirmed in the retrospective AMAHRELIS cohort, including a majority of BV-exposed patients. However, this approach has not been compared to intensive tandem auto/auto or auto/allo transplant strategies, which were used before BV approval. Here, we matched BV maintenance (AMAHRELIS) and tandem SCT (HR2009) cohorts, and observed that BV maintenance was associated with better survival outcome in patients with HR R/R HL.
