TLDR
In early-stage favorable HL, a positive PET after two cycles ABVD indicates a high risk for treatment failure, particularly when a Deauville score of 4 is used as a cutoff for positivity in PET-2-positive patients.
Abstract
PURPOSECombined-modality treatment (CMT) with 2× ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) and small-field radiotherapy is standard of care for patients with early-stage favorable...

Reduced treatment intensity in patients with early-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma.

TL;DR: In patients with early-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma and a favorable prognosis, treatment with two cycles of ABVD followed by 20 Gy of involved-field radiation therapy is as effective as, and less toxic than, four cycles ofABVD following by 30 Gy ofinvolved- field radiation therapy.

Report on the First International Workshop on interim-PET scan in lymphoma

TL;DR: The aim of the workshop was to reach a consensus on simple, reproducible criteria for interim-PET interpretation in Hodgkin lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and to launch two or more international validation studies, in an attempt to validate these rules.

Myocardial Infarction Mortality Risk After Treatment for Hodgkin Disease: A Collaborative British Cohort Study

TL;DR: The risk of death from myocardial infarction after treatment for Hodgkin disease remains high for at least 25 years, and is related to supradiaphragmatic radiotherapy but may also be related to anthracycline and vincristine treatment.
