Baseline Characteristics of 412 Hodgkin's Lymphoma Patients Diagnosed between July 2015 and May 2018: A Report from China Lymphoma Patient Registry (CLAP)

ConclusionCompared with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, HL is less common, less aggressive and attracts less attention from researchers. In 2013, only about 700 HL newly diagnosed cases were reported, accounting for 5.4% of total lymphoma patients in the country (He, Chen, Chinese Cancer Registry Annual Report 2016). Although some multi-center studies had reported the pathology distribution of HL (Sun et.al, Am J Clin Pathol 2012; Cao et.al, Ann Diagn Pathol. 2018), very few of them have more detailed information on disease characteristics and treatment. As one of the biggest observational studies focus on HL in the country as well as in the region, this registry provides a unique opportunity and platform to understand the whole picture of HL diagnosis, treatment and prognosis in real world.DisclosuresSong: Peking University Cancer Hospital (Beijing Cancer Hospital): Employment.
