Brentuximab vedotin in the treatment of paediatric patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma: Results of a real-life study. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2022; 69:e29801.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brentuximab vedotin (BV) is an antibody drug-conjugated anti-CD30 approved for the treatment of adult classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), whereas it is considered as off-label indication in paediatrics. The aim of the study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BV to treat patients aged less than 18 years with refractory/relapsed HL. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicentre, retrospective study, 68 paediatric patients who received at least one dose of BV between November 2011 and August 2020 were enrolled. A median of nine doses of BV were administered as monotherapy (n = 31) or combined with other therapies (n = 37). BV was administrated alone as consolidation therapy after stem cell transplantation (SCT) in 12 patients, before SCT in 18 patients, whereas in 15 patients it was used before and after SCT as consolidation therapy. Median follow-up was 2.8 years (range: 0.6-8.9 years). RESULTS The best response was observed in the 86% of patients; the overall response rate was 66%. The 3-year progression-free survival was 58%, whereas the overall survival was 75%. No statistically significant differences between patients treated with BV monotherapy or combination were highlighted. In multivariate analysis, patients with non-nodular sclerosis HL and not transplanted had an increased risk of failure. Overall, 46% of patients had grade 3-4 adverse events that led to BV discontinuation in five of them. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study confirms that BV was a safe and effective drug, able to induce complete remission, either as monotherapy or in association with standard therapy.

Abstract
A multitude of new agents for the treatment of hematologic malignancies has been introduced over the past decade. Hematologists, infectious disease specialists, stem cell transplant experts, pulmonologists and radiologists have met within the framework of the European Conference on Infections in Leukemia (ECIL) to provide a critical state-of-the-art on infectious complications associated with immunotherapeutic and molecular targeted agents used in clinical routine. For brentuximab vedotin, blinatumomab, CTLA4- and PD-1/PD-L1-inhibitors as well as for ibrutinib, idelalisib, HDAC inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors, ruxolitinib, and venetoclax, a detailed review of data available until August 2018 has been conducted, and specific recommendations for prophylaxis, diagnostic and differential diagnostic procedures as well as for clinical management have been developed.
