Prognosis of Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma Treated With IGEV Induction Therapy Before HDCT With AHSCT

Completed
Conditions
Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Registration Number
NCT01478191
Lead Sponsor
Fondazione Italiana Linfomi - ETS
Brief Summary

This is a retrospective analysis of a homogeneous cohort of patients with relapsed/refractory HL that received IGEV scheme as induction therapy to HDCT and AHSCT for reassess the most common prognostic factors and try to identify a prognostic score with clinical and therapeutic relevance by using 6 clinical tools:

1. B symptoms(yes/no)

2. relapse in previously irradiated areas(yes/no)

3. Ann Arbor Stage (III/IV vs I/II)

4. disease status at accrual (refractory vs relapsed)

5. Early relapse within 12 months of Complete Response (CR) versus late relapse after Complete Response (CR) lasting \> l2 months",

6. extranodal involvement (yes/no).
