E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The main objective of this trial is to assess whether treatment adaptation based on a very early FDG-PET/CT results in improved efficacy while minimizing treatment toxicity in advanced stage HL patients treated with BV-containing regimens, BrAVD and BrECADD. This will be primarily assessed by modified progression-free survival.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are: • To assess the rate of FDG-PET negativity (Deauville score 1-3) after 1 cycle of BrAVD • To assess response according to Lugano Criteria at end of protocol treatment i.e. after chemotherapy and after radiotherapy (if administered), as defined by FDG-PET/CT • To assess the safety and tolerability of the different BV containing regimens • To assess the safety and tolerability of radiotherapy in the context of BrAVD and BrECADD • To assess efficacy in terms of PFS and OS

Note: HBsAg-/HBV DNA – patients are eligible; patients who are seropositive due to vaccination are eligible • Concomitant or previous malignancies within the past 5 years with the exception of adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix , nonmelanoma skin cancer. • Previous treatment with anti CD30 antibodies • Known hypersensitivity to any excipient contained in Brentuximab Vedotin formulation and other study drugs. Refer to Summary Product Characteristics for list of excipients. • Concurrent anti-cancer treatment or use of any investigational agent(s) |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Modified progression-free survival rate at 2 years after start of treatment (2yr-mPFS for each party). The following are considered events for the primary endpoint: progression/relapse; start of new treatment for cHL when not in CR after completing protocol treatment; death from any cause.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Modified progression-free survival rate at 2 years (2yr-mPFS). Modified PFS is defined as the time interval between the treatment start date and the date of the first of: • Progressive disease (PD) • Start of new treatment for cHL when not in CR at the end of protocol treatment; in this case, the date of mPFS is the date of the FDG-PET/CT scan at the end of protocol treatment. Switching therapy prior to end of protocol treatment for reasons other than PD is not considered an event for mPFS. "End of protocol treatment" refers to completion of the planned protocol treatment with no more than 1 missed cycle, including radiotherapy on PET positive lesions if administered • Death due to any cause Patients without any of these events will be censored at the last response assessment date. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
The secondary endpoints are: • FDG-PET result (positive/negative) after 1 cycle of BrAVD (central assessment) • Response rate according to Lugano Criteria at end of protocol treatment i.e. after chemotherapy and after radiotherapy (if administered), as defined by FDG-PET/CT • Progression-free survival (where progression, relapse and death from any cause are considered events). • Overall survival • Safety and tolerability • Response according to RECIL 2017
