German Study Finds New Regimen for Hodgkin Lymphoma More Effective, Less Toxic

Oncology Times - OncTimes Talk

An improvement over standard care in both efficacy and safety of a new combination regimen for treating Hodgkin lymphoma was discussed at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago. The six-drug BrECADD regimen was compared with the high-achieving German-originated BEACOPP chemotherapy that has been widely adopted as standard of care.

During the conference, Oncology Times reporter Peter Goodwin met up with Peter Borchmann, MD, PhD, the lead author of the new research and Chair of the German Hodgkin Study Group at the University Hospital of Cologne in Germany.
