Abstract
We describe 6 pediatric patients (12 to 18 y) with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma treated with consolidative Brentuximab vedotin (Bv) following reinduction chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. The progression-free survival after autologous stem cell transplantation was 12, 18, 22, 24, 30, and 30 months. Most patients tolerated Bv well although 2 patients developed grade 3 neuropathy that prevent them from completing the scheduled 16 doses of Bv. Consolidative Bv in children and adolescents, as currently recommended for adult patients with early relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma, is feasible but with some significant toxicities.
