Brentuximab Vedotin (SGN-35) in Transplant Eligible Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma

Patients will receive 2 cycles of weekly brentuximab vedotin, 1.2mg/kg on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28 day cycle. Patients with pre-treatment positive bone marrow biopsies will have repeat bone marrow biopsies if the PET scan is negative. FDG-PET/CT will be repeated after 2 cycles of treatment within 1 week of the last dose of cycle 2. Patients with persistent abnormalities on FDG-PET/CT following 2 cycles of brentuximab vedotin will receive 2 cycles of augmented ICE. The first cycle of augmented ICE will be initiated 7-14 days after the last dose of SGN-35. FDG-PET/CT will be repeated within 7-14 days following the second cycle of augmented ICE. Stem cell mobilization can be performed following the first or second cycle of augmented ICE.
