Hodgkin Lymphoma, Proton Radiation
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to reduce the risk of radiation related side effects and complications by treating with radiation (protons or photons) that exposes less of normal organs to low dose radiation.
Detailed description
3 treatment plans will be created to deliver between a total of 21-39.6 Gray (Gy)/Centigray Equivalents (CGE) to the planning target volume (PTV). 1. Proton Plan 2. Conventional Plan 3. Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) Plan The patient will then receive the radiation modality with the lowest percentage of the body receiving 4 Gy (V4Gy/CGE)
Interventions
Between 21-39.6 Gy/CGE to the PTV
Between 21-39.6 Gy/CGE to the PTV

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Comparison of Normal Tissue Exposed to Greater Than or Equal to 4 Gy/CGE With Use of Proton Therapy Compared to Both Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and Conventional Therapy. | Immediately proceeding completion of each of the three treatment plans |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants Who Survived | 4 years after beginning of radiation therapy | Overall survival as assessed with the Kaplan-Meier product limit method. |
| Percentage of Participants Who Did Not Have Disease Progression | 4 years after beginning of radiation therapy | Disease free survival as assessed with the Kaplan-Meier product limit method |

|---|---|
| Proton Therapy Plan Compared to IMRT and Conventional RT Each patient has a proton, IMRT and conventional plan done prior to treatment for dosimetric comparison of the primary endpoint which is the percent of the body that receives 4 Gray (%V4). The plan that delivers the smallest %V4 will be the plan that is pursued for actual treatment. Therefore, each patient will have three treatment plans, but will only be treated with one of these three plans (the superior one). | 19 |
