Efficacy of Brentuximab Vedotin in Relapsed or Refractory High-CD30-Expressing Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas: Results of a Multicenter, Open-Labeled Phase II Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The treatment outcome of brentuximab vedotin (BV) has not been related with CD30 expression in previous studies enrolling patients with a wide range of CD30 expression level. Thus, this study explored the efficacy of BV in high-CD30-expressing non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients most likely to benefit.

Materials and methods

This phase II study (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02280785) enrolled relapsed or refractory high-CD30-expressing NHL, with BV administered intravenously at 1.8 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was > 40% disease control rate, consisting of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease. We defined high CD30 expression as ≥ 30% tumor cells positive for CD30 by immunohistochemistry.

Results

High-CD30-expressing NHL patient
