Immunochemotherapy of refractory classical Hodgkin's lymphoma with high-dose consolidation and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation complicated by a new coronavirus i... by L. S. Khayrullina, M. A. Vernyuk, A. M. Chervontseva, I. V. Cherkashina, E. E. Gushchina, A. A. Fedenko

“…The intensification of chemotherapy regimens is highly difficult task for a doctor during the COVID-19 pandemic, which requires careful assessment of a risk-benefit ratio.In current conditions, new targeted and immune drugs are used to overcome resistance and reduce toxicity among pretreated patients, which allows not only to improve the results of a treatment, but also to preserve the high quality of life among patients with extremely unfavorable prognosis.We show our experience of using a checkpoint inhibitor in combination with a dose-intensive regimen of DHAP (dexamethasone, cytarabine, cisplatin) in the treatment of a refractory classical Hodgkin's lymphoma followed by high-dose consolidation chemotherapy and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation, among patients complicated with a new coronavirus infection in the post-transplant period.…”
