Context: Treatment of Primary Refractory or Recurrent Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children and Adolescents

For patients who do not improve after autologous HSCT and patients with chemoresistant disease, allogeneic HSCT has been used with encouraging results.[15,43,55] Investigations of reduced-intensity allogeneic transplant that typically use fludarabine or low-dose total body irradiation to provide a nontoxic immunosuppression have demonstrated acceptable rates of TRM.[56-59]
