Brief summary
This open-label, randomized, 2-arm, multicenter, phase 3 study has the primary objective of comparing the modified progression-free survival (mPFS) obtained with brentuximab vedotin (ADCETRIS®) plus AVD (doxorubicin \[Adriamycin\], vinblastine, and dacarbazine; abbreviated A+AVD) versus that obtained with ABVD (doxorubicin \[Adriamycin\],bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) for the frontline treatment of advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma(HL)

Population: The ITT population included all participants randomized to treatment.
| Arm | Measure | Value (NUMBER) |
|---|---|---|
| A+AVD | Percentage of Participants Not in CR Per IRF Who Received Subsequent Radiation After Completion of Frontline Therapy | 8 percentage of participants |
| ABVD | Percentage of Participants Not in CR Per IRF Who Received Subsequent Radiation After Completion of Frontline Therapy | 13 percentage of participants |
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Negativity Rate Per IRF at Cycle 2
PET negativity rate at Cycle 2 was defined as the percentage of participants with negative Cycle 2 PET results defined as Deauville score less than or equal to (\<=) 3 at Cycle 2. The Deauville score according to IRF assessment of response was used to evaluate the results of PET scans.
Time frame: Cycle 2 Day 25
Population: The ITT population included all participants randomized to treatment.
| Arm | Measure | Value (NUMBER) |
|---|---|---|
| A+AVD | Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Negativity Rate Per IRF at Cycle 2 | 89 percentage of participants |
| ABVD | Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Negativity Rate Per IRF at Cycle 2 | 86 percentage of participants |
