Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as vinblastine cyclophosphamide procarbazine prednisolone etoposide mitoxantrone and bleomycin work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining more than one chemotherapy drug may kill more cancer cells

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating older patients with previously untreated Hodgkins lymphoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the efficacy and toxicity of vinblastine cyclophosphamide procarbazine prednisolone etoposide mitoxantrone and bleomycin in older patients with Hodgkins lymphoma
Determine whether the application of the Hasenclever prognostic index is valid in these patients at diagnosis

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study

Chemotherapy Patients receive vinblastine IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1 oral procarbazine and oral prednisolone on days 1-5 oral etoposide on days 15-19 and mitoxantrone IV and bleomycin IV on day 15 Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for a total of 3 courses in patients with early stage IA or IIA disease or 6 courses in patients with advanced stage IB or IIB-IV disease
Radiotherapy Patients with early stage disease receive involved-field radiotherapy Patients with advanced stage disease receive radiotherapy limited to sites of initial bulky disease or residual disease Radiotherapy begins 4 weeks after the completion of chemotherapy

Patients are followed monthly for 3 months every 3 months for 6 months and then annually thereafter

Peer Reviewed and Funded or Endorsed by Cancer Research UK

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 150 patients will be accrued for this study within 36 months
