Older patients (aged ≥60 years) with previously untreated advanced-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma: a detailed analysis from the phase III ECHELON-1 study.

Effective and tolerable treatments are needed for older patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). We report results for older patients with cHL treated in the large phase III ECHELON-1 study of frontline brentuximab vedotin plus doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A+AVD) versus doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD). Modified progression-free survival (PFS) per independent review facility (IRF) for older versus younger patients (aged ≥60 versus.
