Radiation Free Chemotherapy for Early Hodgkin Lymphoma
- Registration Number
- NCT04866654
- Lead Sponsor
- Medical University of Gdansk
- Brief Summary
The results of the present study will provide information on short-term safety and efficacy of a iPET and MTV-adapted therapeutic strategy, aimed to assess the feasibility and safety on immediate disease control of a standard ABVD chemotherapy without any further treatment in patients with a very low risk or treatment failure. A second very important endpoint will be the efficacy of INRT "on demand" followed by Nivolumab maintenance for one year to rescue patients failing first-line treatment and relapsing with the pattern of "limited relapse" in terms of 3-Y failure from 2 relapse (FF2R). Patients entering into the study will be also asked to participate to a long-term follow up study (beyond ten years) to assess the prevalence of late-onset cardiovascular effects and secondary tumors in the cohort of patients enrolled in the experimental and control arm of the study. An exploratory endpoint has been also added such as the role of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) detection by cell-free DNA assay on peripheral blood samples obtained during treatment in predicting long-term disease control.

Name Time Method Efficacy exploration in terms of 3-Y PFS of chemotherapy alone During follow-up (36 months) after the end of treatment To explore the efficacy, in terms of 3-Y PFS of chemotherapy alone in low-risk early-stage I-IIA HL patients, defined by both a low MTV and a negative interim PET after 2 courses of ABVD
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluation the ability of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) assay During follow-up (36 months) after the end of treatment To evaluate the ability of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) assay to detect an impending relapse during follow-up in low-risk patients treated with chemotherapy alone�k�
Efficacy exploration in terms of 3-Y PFS of chemotherapy plus Nivolumab During follow-up (36 months) after the end of treatment To explore the efficacy in terms of 3-Y PFS of CMT plus Nivolumab in high-risk early-stage (I-IIA) HL (eHL), defined either by a positive PET- 2 or a high baseline MTV or both
Safety exploration in terms of 3-Y OS of a treatment with chemotherapy alone During follow-up (36 months) after the end of treatment To explore the safety in terms of 3-Y OS of a treatment with chemotherapy alone in low-risk early-stage (I-IIA) HL patients, defined by a low Metabolic Tumor Volume negative interim PET after 2 ABVD courses
Efficacy exploration in terms of 3-Y freedom from 2nd treatment failure (3-Y FF2TF) of chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy "on demand" plus Nivolumab maintenance During follow-up (36 months) after the end of treatment To explore the efficacy in terms of 3-Y freedom from 2nd treatment failure (3-Y FF2TF) of chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy "on demand" plus Nivolumab maintenance in patients relapsing with the pattern of "limited relapse" (see below) for the entire group (relapsed and non-relapsed) of low-risk patients (with low MTV and negative PET- 2) high-risk early-stage (I-IIA) HL (eHL), defined either by a positive PET- 2 or a high baseline MTV or both
