Abstract
Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is rare disease, with an incidence of approximately 85,000 patients globally per year and a predilection for adolescents and young adults (ages 15–39). Since the introduction of combination chemotherapy in the 1960's and radiation dating back to the early 1900's, therapeutic options and by extension, clinical outcomes have improved dramatically with 5-year overall survival (OS) approaching 90% today. [1](#ref-0001) Advances in understanding HL biology have additionally facilitated development of targeted agents and immunotherapy which have further improved short and long-term outcomes. Despite continued improvements in up-front and salvage therapy, long-term survivors of HL experience several treatment-associated late toxicities, thus, along with efforts to improve therapeutic efficacy, efforts to reduce late effects remain a high-priority in the field.
期刊介绍:
Hematological Oncology considers for publication articles dealing with experimental and clinical aspects of neoplastic diseases of the hemopoietic and lymphoid systems and relevant related matters. Translational studies applying basic science to clinical issues are particularly welcomed. Manuscripts dealing with the following areas are encouraged:
-Clinical practice and management of hematological neoplasia, including: acute and chronic leukemias, malignant lymphomas, myeloproliferative disorders
-Diagnostic investigations, including imaging and laboratory assays
-Epidemiology, pathology and pathobiology of hematological neoplasia of hematological diseases
-Therapeutic issues including Phase 1, 2 or 3 trials as well as allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplantation studies
-Aspects of the cell biology, molecular biology, molecular genetics and cytogenetics of normal or diseased hematopoeisis and lymphopoiesis, including stem cells and cytokines and other regulatory systems.
Concise, topical review material is welcomed, especially if it makes new concepts and ideas accessible to a wider community. Proposals for review material may be discussed with the Editor-in-Chief. Collections of case material and case reports will be considered only if they have broader scientific or clinical relevance.
