Perales begins by discussing the new therapies that have become available in the past decade to treat Hodgkin lymphoma, such as rituximab and checkpoint inhibitors. This is followed by a summary of the joint study between the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) and EBMT, which aimed to investigate if receiving a checkpoint inhibitor prior to allogeneic transplant impacted progression-free and overall survival in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma.
