Abstract

Survival of a pediatric cancer patient is measured not only by the therapeutic eradication of the malignancy, but also by maintenance of potential for a life unburdened by medical morbidity. This challenge for pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment has, in recent decades, defined the strategies of care. Although the biology and natural history of HL is similar in children and adults, pediatric treatment paradigms have been specifically designed to avoid the toxicities associated with the classic treatment approaches used for adults. This chapter highlights the impact of the tandem concerns for efficacy and safety on the evolution of treatment strategies for pediatric and adolescent HL. Although relapse is relatively uncommon, the efficacy and toxicity of salvage strategies impact on overall survival and quality of survival. Novel approaches designed initially for those with recurrent disease provide opportunity to explore new biologically based therapies. When applied to newly diagnosed patients, these new regimens may improve efficacy and reduce toxicity for all patients with HL.
