AETHERA
In AETHERA, a year of the CD30 ADC after transplant halved relapse risk in high-risk patients.
PFS HR 0.57 (median 42.9 vs 24.1 months); no OS difference (crossover). Approved August 2015 as post-transplant consolidation.
- Median 42.9 vs 24.1 months with Brentuximab vedotin compared with Placebo; about 18.8 months longer for half the group.
- A median is a midpoint: half the people did better than this and half did worse, so it is not a prediction for any one person.
- Put another way, the treated group had about 43 percent lower chance of the event at any given time (hazard ratio 0.57, likely range 0.4 to 0.81).
- This is a surrogate endpoint: it measures the cancer being controlled or absent on scans and tests, which often, but not always, translates into living longer.
- These results apply to the people the trial enrolled: High-risk Hodgkin lymphoma after autologous transplant: brentuximab vedotin consolidation vs placebo. People in a different situation may not see the same effect.
