Abstract

Anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity is an important dose-limiting toxicity for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) for HL treatment. Patients with newly diagnosed HL treated with at least two cycles of PLD-containing chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. The dosing and scheduling of the PLD-containing regimen (the PBVD regimen) were as follows: PLD 25 mg/m2, vincristine 1.4 mg/m2 (maximum dose of 2 mg), bleomycin 10 mg/m2, and dacarbazine 375 mg/m2 at days l and 15, repeated every 28 days. Forty-six HL patients were analyzed. The median age was 41.5 years (range 12-77 years), with a male/female ratio of 0.9:1. Fourteen (30%) patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score > 1, and 32 (70%) had a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or related risk factors. The median chemotherapy cycle number with the PBVD regimen was 6 (range, 2-8). The overall response rate (ORR) was 91% for the whole cohort; 35 (76%) patients achieved complete remission (CR), and 7 (15%) achieved partial remission. The efficacy of the PBVD regimen was similar in patients with or without CVD or related risk factors (ORR 93% vs....Continue Reading

Cardiotoxicity

Cardiotoxicity refers to the muscle damage or dysfunction of heart electrophysiology caused by drug intake or due to disease complications. It is a well-known side effect of several cytotoxic drugs, especially of the anthracyclines and can lead to long term morbidity. Here is the latest research.
