简要总结
The purpose of this study is to define an improvement in patients:
- To evaluate if patients resistant to the initial treatment for residual PET-positive masses after the first two courses of ABVD (PET-2 positive), can be salvaged by early shift to high-dose chemotherapy supported by stem cell rescue
- To analyse if patients achieving early complete response (PET-2 negative), can be spared the adjuvant radiotherapy on areas of initial bulky disease, at the end of the planned six courses of ABVD. To answer this question, PET-2 negative patients will be randomized between radiotherapy versus no radiotherapy at the end of ABVD therapy.
详细描述
This study is composed by two phases:
- A phase II multi-centre study evaluating in patients with advanced stage Hodgkin lymphoma the efficacy of an early salvage treatment with high-dose chemotherapy followed by stem cell transplantation in patients FDG-PET positive after two courses of ABVD (PET-2 positive).
- A phase III randomised study comparing the efficacy of radiotherapy to the areas of initial bulky disease versus no further therapy in PET-2 negative patients in complete remission (PET-6 negative) at the end of six courses of ABVD.

研究组 & 干预措施
Arm A
Two courses of ABVD. Early restaging with FDG-PET scan (PET-2)
The subsequent treatment will be as it follows:
- PET-2 positive patients will be high-dose salvage treatment;
- PET-2 negative patients will be treated with four additional courses of ABVD (for a total of six courses).
The following restaging procedures are planned as it follows:
- Optional: Whole body CT scan after the fourth course of ABVD; no therapy change will be made according to CT scan.
- Mandatory: Whole body CT and FDG-PET scans after the sixth course of ABVD (PET-6).
PET-6 negative patients will be randomized to first arm:
No radiotherapy.
干预措施: ABVD (Drug)
Arm B
Two courses of ABVD. Early restaging with FDG-PET scan (PET-2)
The subsequent treatment will be as it follows:
- PET-2 positive patients will be high-dose salvage treatment;
- PET-2 negative patients will be treated with four additional courses of ABVD (for a total of six courses).
The following restaging procedures are planned as it follows:
- Optional: Whole body CT scan after the fourth course of ABVD; no therapy change will be made according to CT scan.
- Mandatory: Whole body CT and FDG-PET scans after the sixth course of ABVD (PET-6).
PET-6 negative patients will be randomized to second arm:
Adjuvant radiotherapy (30 Gy) on sites of initial bulky disease.
干预措施: ABVD and Radiotherapy (Drug)
