Running, not enrolling · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Hodgkin Disease

In brief

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity, as well as confirm the recommended dose of brentuximab vedotin (ADCETRIS) in combination with a multiagent chemotherapy regimen, doxorubicin (Adriamycin), vinblastine, and dacarbazine, in pediatric participants with advanced stage newly diagnosed classical CD30+ Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL).
