Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| * Including children with Morbus Hodgkin in the Netherlands in this study will give a larger power to this study and does mean sooner sufficient patient accrual to achieve a reliable result concerning the value of TARC monitoring to determine the disease activity. * In adult patients is has been proved that the TARC level after treatment has a prognostic value. By including children with Morbus Hodgkin we'll be able to determine if this is also the case with children. * By collecting blood during treatment we possibly can get a good idea about the disease activity and efficiency of the treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| If the sensivity of increased TARC and MDC serum levels is hight and patients with consistent low TARC and MDC levels are free from failure, measurement of TARC and MDC could replace expensive CT and PET scans. | — |
