Given the data from SWOG 1826 suggesting that Nivo-AVD is likely the preferred regimen for advanced Hodgkin lymphoma patients, are there scenarios where BV-AVD may still be preferred?
Answer from: Medical Oncologist at Academic Institution
Unless there was a contradiction to nivolumab (e.g., an active autoimmune disease), I would always favor N-AVD over BV-AVD- particularly in older patients.
