A case of advanced Hodgkin lymphoma with breast involvement treated with a combination of gemcitabine and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin.
Gemcitabine in combination with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin has been recognized as an effective treatment in patients with refractory solid tumors. To our knowledge, this is the first case of relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma with breast involvement successfully treated with this association.
