Abstract Abstract 664 Background: The prognosis of patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) who relapse following autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation is poor. Although reduced intensity allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (RIC allo-HCT) can induce durable remissions in some patients with relapsed/refractory HL, its use is limited by a lack of disease control prior to transplantation. Brentuximab vedotin (b-vedotin, SGN-35), a novel antibody-drug conjugate, has a 75% objective response rate in patients with relapsed/refractory HL (Chen 2011). To examine the impact of b-vedotin on RIC allo-HCT, we performed a retrospective analysis of relapsed/refractory HL patients who received b-vedotin at City of Hope National Medical Center (COH) and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC)/Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) and then went on to receive RIC allo-HCT. Methods: Between October 2008 and July 2011, 46 patients with relapsed/refractory HL received b-vedotin at COH and SCCA through Seattle Genetics trials (SGN-35-03, 06, 07, and 08). 16/46 (34.8%) patients subsequently underwent RIC allo-HCT, including 12 at COH (2/12 were transplanted at University of Utah and Wellington Hospital) and 4 at the SCCA. The baseline characteristics are listed in Table 1. All 12 COH patients received fludarabine/melphalan as the conditioning regimen, 5/12 used matched related donors and 7/12 used matched unrelated donors. 10/12 received tacrolimus/sirolimus as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and 2 patients received mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and cyclosporine (CSP). In contrast, 3/4 patients transplanted at the SCCA received haploidentical donors transplantation using fludarabine/cytoxan/2Gy TBI conditioning and cytoxan/tacrolimus/MMF as GVHD prophylaxis while 1/4 underwent conditioning using 2Gy TBI followed by CSP/MMF prophylaxis. Patients were monitored for engraftment, aGVHD, cGVHD, chimerism, and infectious complications per institutional standards. Each institutional review board approved the retrospective analysis of individual center data and we plan to present combined analysis of COH/SCCA data at ASH. Results: At COH, the 1 year PFS was 90% (95% CI: 54.0, 98.2) and the 1 year OS was 100% with a median follow-up of 13.2 months (range: 2, 20), In addition, the 1 year relapse rate was 10% (95% CI: 1.7, 46) and the non-relapse mortality at 1 year was 0%. Likewise, all 4 of the SCCA patients are alive and progression-free with a median follow up of 7.2 months (range: 2.9, 19). For the entire cohort the rates of aGVHD and cGVHD were 25% and 63%, respectively. There was no grade III-IV aGVHD and only 1/16 (6.3%) with extensive cGVHD. There was no delay of engraftment or increased incidence of CMV/EBV infections (Table 1). The only patient who relapsed after RIC allo-HCT had progressive disease at the time of transplantation, and 276 days had elapsed between the last dose of b-vedotin to RIC allo-HCT. Conclusion: These data suggest that b-vedotin prior to RIC allo-HCT in HL can yield prolonged disease control without a delay in engraftment, increase in non-relapse mortality, aGVHD, cGVHD, and post transplant infectious complications. Such a strategy may allow more patients with relapsed or refractory HL to gain sufficient pre-transplant disease control to undergo this potentially curative procedure.

Abstract Abstract 1192 Poster Board I-214 Background: Even though Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a curable disease, about, 20-30% patients are either refractory to induction chemotherapy or relapse post treatment. High dose chemotherapy and autologous HCT has been shown to be an effective salvage therapy for patients with relapsed HL. However, relapse continues to occur after auto-HCT, especially in patients with chemoresistant or poor-risk features at relapse. The prognosis of these patients is poor with limited options of treatment. Although allo-HCT offers both cytoreduction and potential graft-versus-tumor effect, its use in relapsed HL has been limited by non-relapse mortality (NRM) and patient co-morbidities induced by numerous prior treatments. To examine the potential impact of allo-HCT on survival and disease outcomes, we performed retrospective analysis of allo-HCT in relapsed/refractory HL to determine if allo-HCT can induce long-term remission in heavily pretreated relapsed HL. Results: Between January 2003 and December 2008, 29 patients with relapsed HL underwent allo-HCT at City of Hope National Medical Center. The median age was 37 (range: 14-63). 20 (69%) patients were chemosensitive at time of allo-HCT. 17 (59%) patients had prior auto-HCT. 16 (55%) patients received matched siblings and 13 (45%) received unrelated donor cells. 20 (69%) patients had prior radiation treatments. The median number of prior regimens was 5 (range: 2-8). 23 (79%) patients underwent a non-myeloablative conditioning regimen while 6 (21%) patients had a myeloablative regimen. 14 (48%) patients received Tacrolimus/Sirolimus as graft versus host disease prophylaxis and 15 (52%) patients received a combination of Cellcept/CsA, Cellcept/CsA/MTX, Tacrolimus/MTX, or Tacrolimus/Sirolimus/MTX. With a median follow up of 31.9 months (range: 9.7-69.1) for surviving patients, the results show: Conclusion: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in heavily pretreated relapsed Hodgkin's lymphoma is feasible, tolerable, and can induce durable clinical remissions.
