Adriamycin, Vinblastine and Dacarbazine With Immunotherapy Achieves Complete Metabolic Response in a Patient With Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma and Dyskeratosis Congenita. (PubMed, J Hematol)
To mitigate pulmonary and myelotoxicity risks, he received a modified regimen of brentuximab vedotin (BV) combined with adriamycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (BV-AVD), with full omission of bleomycin. It underscores the critical need for individualized therapy in patients with DC and supports careful consideration of radiation omission to reduce secondary malignancy risk. These findings provide a potential therapeutic framework for managing Hodgkin lymphoma in patients with DC.

Chemotherapy Supports Cancer Cell Dissemination in a Melanoma Preclinical Model. (PubMed, Asian Pac J Cancer Prev)
Taken together, dacarbazine and the miR-204-5p mimic favor the dissemination of B16 melanoma cells in the lungs, which may support further metastatic development. Although miR-204-5p has been described as a tumor-suppressive microRNA in melanoma, the application of a synthetic mimic to overexpress it in distant organs promoted tumor cell dissemination.

Exploration of the Synergistic Effect of Chitosan Oligosaccharide and Dacarbazine (DTIC) in the Treatment of Melanoma. (PubMed, Curr Cancer Drug Targets)
Notably, COS-2 not only enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of DTIC but also alleviated its side effects. The combination therapy with COS and DTIC exhibited a synergistic effect and may be a promising therapeutic strategy for melanoma.

A Case of Metastatic Melanoma Refractory to Immunotherapy: Is Cytotoxic Chemotherapy Still an Effective Option? (PubMed, Cureus)
Interestingly, some of these patients may derive meaningful benefit from cytotoxic chemotherapy. We present the report of a case of a 63-year-old lady with BRAF wild type, locally advanced mucosal melanoma who demonstrated disease progression on combination immunotherapy with Ipilimumab and nivolumab. She subsequently achieved an exceptional and durable radiological and clinical response to chemotherapy with cisplatin and dacarbazine. This case highlights that, despite advances in personalized medicine and immunotherapy, conventional chemotherapy may still represent a valuable therapeutic option in selected patients, particularly in the refractory setting.

Hodgkin Variant Richter's Transformation in the Absence of Classical Risk Factors: A Rare Case With Spinal Manifestation. (PubMed, Cureus)
After receiving six cycles of brentuximab+doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A+AVD) therapy at our Department of Hematology (University of Debrecen), the patient achieved complete metabolic remission (CMR) and remains in good condition. HL-RT in CLL is relatively rare and generally associated with poorer outcomes, though it is typically more favorable than DLBCL-RT. In this case report, we highlight not only an uncommon anatomical location of HL-RT but also the absence of typical predisposing factors, such as a TP53 mutation, unmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGHV) status, or a lack of 13q deletion.
