[High dose intensity with COP-BLAM in Hodgkin's disease with unfavorable risk factors].
Thirty three patients with unfavourable risk factors suffering from Hodgkin's disease received COPBlAM polychemotherapy as first treatment in a phase-II study between 3/86 and 2/89. The median cumulative relative dose intensity (RDI) of 0.97, calculated as a measure for the given amount of cytostatics per time, was very high. Fourteen patients (43%) achieved a complete remission (CR); 11 (33%) additional cases were categorized as far-reaching remission (FRR) due to small residual tumors in the regions of originally large tumor masses, 7 (21%) as partial remission (PR), and one case (3%) as progression. As the small residual tumors of the patients grouped as FRR did not shrink during the following radiotherapy (RT), these cases were also classified as complete responders retrospectively. Thus, after chemotherapy 76% CR resulted. After completion of RT 91% of the patients have achieved a CR. The progress-free survival probability and the survival probability were 83% and 86% respectively after 45 months.
