Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary objective of the study is to determine the progression-free survival \[PFS\] at 36 months for patients with Hodgkin lymphoma who achieve a complete metabolic response as demonstrated by a negative fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET scan after one cycle of ABVD (adriamycin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine) who undergo abbreviated ABVD chemotherapy (3 cycles).
Detailed description
The proposed study is based on the repeated demonstration that patients with Hodgkin lymphoma who attain a negative PET scan early in therapy (after one or 2 cycles of chemotherapy) have a uniformly excellent outcome, with long term disease free survival of 90-95%. We propose to abbreviate chemotherapy in those patients showing a complete metabolic response as measured by FDG-PET after one cycle of ABVD. These patients will undergo two more cycles of ABVD chemotherapy, for a total of 3 cycles. Those patients failing to achieve a complete metabolic response as demonstrated by residual FDG avidity will go off study and be treated as per their primary treating physician.
Interventions
Adriamycin 25 mg/m2 bleomycin 10 units/m2 vinblastine 6 mg/m2 dacarbazine 375 mg/m on Days 1 and 15 of each 28 day cycle

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Histologically documented classical Hodgkin lymphoma according to the WHO Classification. Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma is excluded * No prior treatment (chemotherapy or radiation therapy) for Hodgkin lymphoma * Measurable disease must be present either on physical examination or imaging studies. Any tumor mass measurable in two dimensions and \> 2 cm is acceptable (or 1.5 cm if 0.5 cm slices are used as in spiral CT scans) * Age ≥ 18 * Patients must have at least one hypermetabolic lesion identifiable on initial PET scan * LVEF by ECHO or MUGA within institutional normal limits * Initial laboratory data should be compatible with the administration of standard doses of ABVD chemotherapy
Exclusion criteria
* Patient has no known HIV infection * Patient is non-pregnant and non-lactating. Due to the teratogenic potential of the agents used in this study, pregnant or nursing women may not be enrolled. Women and men of reproductive potential should agree to use an effective means of birth control * No other history of lymphoproliferative disorder or granulomatous disease
