Red flags — PRO / CONTRA aggressive

PRO-AGGRESSIVE

Triggers that push toward the aggressive track
  • Classical Hodgkin lymphoma stage III-IV (advanced) — selects A+AVD (ECHELON-1) over ABVD if brentuximab accessibleRF-CHL-ADVANCED-STAGE

CONTRA-AGGRESSIVE

Hard contraindications to escalation
  • Pre-treatment LVEF <50% is an absolute contraindication to anthracycline-containing regimens (R-CHOP, Pola-R-CHP, ABVD, BV-AVD, etc.). Cardiotoxicity from doxorubicin is dose-cumulative and often irreversible; starting with already-impaired function risks acute decompensation.CI-LVEF-LOW-FOR-ANTHRACYCLINE
  • Severe pre-existing peripheral neuropathy is an absolute contraindication to bortezomib — therapy will likely worsen the neuropathy to a disabling and often permanent extent.CI-BORTEZOMIB-SEVERE-NEUROPATHY
  • Active or latent HBV without antiviral prophylaxis is an absolute contraindication to starting B-cell-depleting / immunomodulatory monoclonal antibody therapy (anti-CD20, anti-CD30 ADC, anti-CD38). Severe HBV reactivation hepatitis risk including fulminant hepatic failure.CI-HBV-NO-PROPHYLAXIS

What NOT to do

Explicit prohibitive rules, each grounded in a regimen / supportive care / contraindication entity
Standard plan (IND-CHL-1L-ABVD)
  • Do NOT combine with brentuximab vedotin — ABSOLUTE pulmonary toxicity contraindication.
  • Do NOT use G-CSF on ABVD — increases pulmonary toxicity of bleomycin.
  • Do NOT continue bleomycin with DLCO drop ≥25% — switch to AVD (drop bleo).
  • Do NOT skip baseline LVEF + DLCO + fertility preservation discussion.
  • Do NOT use high-flow O2 during anesthesia after bleomycin (lifetime risk).
  • Do NOT start without HBV screening + entecavir prophylaxis if HBsAg+ — reactivation on steroid pulse is real (also actionable if anti-HBc+ — monitor HBV-DNA q-cycle).
  • Do NOT interrupt ART in HIV+ patients — HIV-HL outcomes approach HIV-negative cHL with concurrent ART; avoid ritonavir-boosted PIs (vincristine interaction); PJP prophylaxis throughout.
Aggressive plan (IND-CHL-1L-A-AVD)
  • Do NOT combine brentuximab with bleomycin — ABSOLUTE; lethality risk.
  • Do NOT skip G-CSF support — neutropenia with brentuximab + anti-mitotic is higher.
  • Do NOT ignore pre-existing peripheral neuropathy — Grade ≥2 = absolute CI.
  • Do NOT prescribe without a verified funding pathway — brentuximab is not NSZU-reimbursed.
  • Do NOT start brentuximab without HBV screening + entecavir prophylaxis if HBsAg+ or anti-HBc+ — anti-CD30 ADC has documented HBV reactivation risk; continue ≥12 mo after last BV dose.
  • Do NOT interrupt ART in HIV+ — A+AVD is acceptable with ART; integrase backbone preferred (vincristine-PI interaction); PJP prophylaxis throughout.
