Brief Summary:

This study is a multicentric phase II open-label trial consisting of 6 cycles Nivolumab (2 weeks interval) followed by a PET-CT scan. The treatment will be allocated according to PET and CT scan responses. :

  • In case of CMR according to Lugano Classification (Cheson et al.2014, PET-CT based response), patients will receive 18 additional cycles of Nivolumab, according to CT-based response at Cycle 12.
  • In case of Partial Metabolic Response (PMR) or No Metabolic Response(NMR), according to Lugano Classification (Cheson et al.2014, PET-CT based response) patients will receive 12 to 18 cycles of Nivolumab combined with Vinblastin according to CT-based response at Cycle 12.
  • In case of progressive disease, according to Lugano Classification (Cheson et al.2014, PET-CT scan based response) patients will be considered in treatment failure.

Official Title: A Prospective Phase II Study Of Nivolumab Alone, Or In Combination With Vinblastin In Patients Aged 61 Years And Older, With Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma And Coexisting Medical Conditions.
Actual Study Start Date : August 31, 2018
Actual Primary Completion Date : February 19, 2021
Actual Study Completion Date : August 12, 2021


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Experimental

Induction treatment :Nivolumab will be given alone at 240 mg flat dose every 2 weeks (i.e. one cycle) Patients will be assessed after 3 months of therapy (after 6 injections of Nivolumab)

Consolidation treatment:

It depends on the induction evaluation by PET-CT and CT-scan (Lugano 2014 criteria) :

  • For patients achieving CMR according to Lugano Classification : treatment by nivolumab 240 mg every 2 weeks for 9 months.
  • Patients who reach PMR and NMR after 3 months (according to Lugano Classification) will be treated by the Nivolumab+Vinblastin regimen every 2 weeks for 9 additional months: Vinblastin(6 mg/m2 (IV) + Nivolumab 240 mg (IV)
  • In case of progressive disease , patients will be considered in treatment failure.
Drug: Nivolumab
240 mg

Drug: Vinblastin
6mg/m²

  • Subjects with active, known or suspected autoimmune disease. Are permitted to enroll: subjects with vitiligo, type I diabetes mellitus, residual hypothyroidism due to autoimmune condition only requiring hormone replacement, psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment, or conditions not expected to recur in the absence of an external trigger.
  • Any serious active disease, severe cardio-pulmonary, or metabolic disease interfering with normal application of protocol treatment (according to the investigator's decision)
  • Any of the following abnormal laboratory values (unless due to underlying HL) :

    1. Calculated creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min (MDRD formula)

  • Any history of cancer evolution requiring therapy during the last 3 years with the exception of non-melanoma skin tumors or stage 0 (in situ) cervical carcinoma. Patients previously diagnosed with prostate cancer are eligible if :

    1. Their disease was T1-T2a, N0, M0, with a Gleason score ≤ 7, and a prostate specific antigen (PSA) ≤ 10 ng/mL prior to initial therapy,
    2. They had definitive curative therapy (ie, prostatectomy or radiotherapy) ≥ 2 years before Day 1 of Cycle 1,
