Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy works in treating young patients with favorable-risk Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, vinblastine, mechlorethamine hydrochloride, vincristine sulfate, bleomycin, etoposide, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill cancer cells for those patients that still had residual cancer at the end of chemotherapy. Giving combination chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells and allow doctors to save the part of the body where the cancer started.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Stanford V Chemotherapy

The Stanford V regimen is an abbreviated, multi-agent, dose-intensive regimen that utilizes many of the most active chemotherapy agents for Hodgkin lymphoma: Vinblastine, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Bleomycin, Mechlorethamine, Etoposide, and Prednisone

RADIATION

Radiation Therapy

Patients who achieve less than a complete response after 8 weeks of chemotherapy will receive 25.5 Gy to individual nodal sites (tailored fields) starting 2-3 weeks following completion of all chemotherapy and recovery of ANC to at least 1000.
