The efficiency of different combined treatment programs (combination chemotherapy-radiotherapy) used for stage I-II Hodgkin's disease. 1987

G D Baysogolov, and S V Shakhtarina

This study presents the analysis of results obtained in 237 Hodgkin's disease patients, stages I and II, treated with combined modality therapy. The overall and disease-free survival rates at 5 years were 96.6 and 85.2%, respectively. The study has demonstrated the superiority of the following treatment program: one cycle of combination chemotherapy + radiation therapy + 5 cycles of combination chemotherapy. It has been found possible to reduce the number of radiation fields in combined modality therapy: for patients with stage IA-IIA lymphocyte predominant or nodular sclerosing Hodgkin's disease it was sufficient only to treat clinically involved sites. Short- and long-term consequences of combined modality therapy have been analysed.

D003520 Cyclophosphamide Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the LIVER to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of LYMPHOMA and LEUKEMIA. Its side effect, ALOPECIA, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.
