| Description
| - Approximately 20% of all Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients are older than 60 years and have a poor prognosis, mainly because of increased treatment-related toxicity resulting in reduced overall dose intensity and more treatment-related mortality. To possibly improve the treatment of elderly HL patients, the German Hodgkin Study Group developed a new regimen, PVAG (prednisone, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and gemcitabine). In this multicenter phase 2 study, elderly HL patients in early unfavorable and advanced stages received 6 to 8 cycles of PVAG and additional radiotherapy if they were not in complete remission (CR) after chemotherapy. Endpoints included feasibility, acute toxicity, and response rate. Fifty-nine patients 60 to 75 years of age (median, 68 years) were eligible for analysis; 93% had advanced stage disease. WHO grade 3/4 toxicities were documented in 43 patients; 46 patients responded with CR/CR uncertain (78%). Within 37 months median observation time, 15 progressions or relapses and 17 deaths were observed, of which 8 were related to HL and 1 was the result of treatment-related toxicity. The 3-year estimates for overall survival and progression-free survival were 66% (95% CI, 50%-78%) and 58% (95% CI, 43%-71%), respectively. We conclude that PVAG is safe and feasible in elderly HL patients
