简要总结
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is most effective in treating Hodgkin's lymphoma.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of different regimens of combination chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy in treating patients who have Hodgkin's lymphoma.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Compare the late toxicity of 6 courses of epirubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and prednisone (EBVP) followed by involved-field radiotherapy (IF-RT) (36 Gy) vs IF-RT (20 Gy), vs no IF-RT (closed to accrual as of 6/2002) in patients with supradiaphragmatic Hodgkin's lymphoma, favorable prognosis, and complete remission (CR) or CR unconfirmed after completion of chemotherapy. (Favorable prognosis group [group 1] closed to accrual as of 4/28/04.)
- Compare 6 courses of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) vs 4 courses of ABVD vs 4 courses of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, bleomycin, etoposide, procarbazine, and prednisone (BEACOPP) followed by IF-RT, with respect to overall survival and late treatment-related toxicity, in patients with supradiaphragmatic Hodgkin's lymphoma and unfavorable prognosis. (Unfavorable prognosis group [group 2] closed to accrual as of 9/2002.) (Favorable prognosis group [group 1] closed to accrual as of 4/28/04.)
- Maintain the failure-free survival and relapse-free survival rates that were reached in the previous EORTC studies (H5 to H8), with a reduction in acute and delayed side effects of the treatment, in particular that of severe late radiotherapy and chemotherapy-related toxicity.
- Compare the quality of life, overall survival, treatment quality control, and duration of treatment in patients with favorable (closed to accrual as of 4/28/04) or unfavorable (closed to accrual as of 9/2002) prognoses treated with these regimens.
- Determine the efficacy of conservative therapy comprised of observation until disease progression (DP) and administration of IF-RT at the time of DP in patients with lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma, nodular subtype (nodular paragranuloma).
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study.
Patients with classical Hodgkin's lymphoma are assigned to 1 of 2 randomized groups. (Group 2 [unfavorable prognosis] closed to accrual as of 9/2002.) (Group 1 [favorable prognosis] closed to accrual as of 4/28/04.) Patients with lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma are assigned to the nonrandomized group.
