Conditions
Hodgkin Lymphoma
Trial Purpose
Researchers are looking for a way to treat classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) that is relapsed (the cancer has come back after treatment) or refractory (current treatment has stopped working to slow or stop cancer growth). Researchers want to learn if people who receive coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) live longer without the cancer getting worse compared to those who receive chemotherapy.

Trial Phase 3
In Phase 3 trials, researchers try to find out if a treatment works in a large number of people, usually about 1,000 to 5,000 participants who have the health condition the treatment is intended to treat. In vaccine trials, the participants may be healthy or have diseases or conditions. Phase 3 trials may happen in a doctor’s office, a clinic, or a hospital.
