While the most common schedule of very low-dose RT used in the palliative setting is 4Gy in 2 fractions, which was established in the landmark FoRT trial, this requires patients to be available for two RT sessions, increasing the financial and opportunity costs for the patient. Currently, data regarding the use of a single fraction of very low-dose RT (4Gy) for treating iNHLs in the palliative setting is still lacking.

Tinostamustine, a novel alkylating deacetylase inhibitor, inhibits tumor cell growth and slows disease progression in models of hematological malignancies and solid tumors. This was a Phase I, multicenter, open-label, two-stage trial investigating the safety and efficacy of tinostamustine in patients ≥ 18 years with relapsed/refractory (R/R) hematological malignancies, including HL.

Stage 2 confirmed the safety and efficacy of the RP2D in expansion cohorts of selected R/R hematological malignancies. Ten patients with heavily pre-treated HL entered dose-escalation, with nine patients experiencing treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) considered to be related to study treatment—primarily hematological toxicities.
