Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine, dacarbazine, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, procarbazine hydrochloride, vincristine sulfate, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays to kill cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. Comparing results of imaging procedures, such as PET scans and CT scans, done before, during, and after chemotherapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

PURPOSE: This phase II clinical trial studies how well chemotherapy based on PET/CT scan works in treating patients with stage I or stage II Hodgkin lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) at 36 months following registration for patients who are positron emission tomography (PET) negative after 2 courses of ABVD, and receive 4 additional courses of doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) followed by involved-nodal radiotherapy \[INRT\] of 30-30.6 Gy.

Secondary

* To evaluate the PET-negative rate after 2 courses of ABVD chemotherapy in patients with stage I/II Hodgkin lymphoma with bulky mediastinal disease.
* To evaluate the PFS at 36 months for patients who are PET positive after 2 courses of chemotherapy and receive 4 courses of escalated bleomycin sulfate, etoposide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, procarbazine hydrochloride, and prednisone (BEACOPP) followed by INRT of 30-30.6 Gy.
* To evaluate the complete response (CR) rate and overall survival (OS) for PET-positive and PET-negative patients after 2 courses of ABVD.
* To identify sites of relapse following combined-modality therapy (CMT) for patients with large mediastinal adenopathy and correlate with RT fields.
* To assess toxicity on both arms of study.
* To assess reproductive function at baseline and at 3 years after ABVD or escalated BEACOPP with specific serum markers.
* To bank serum and plasma at baseline and selected time points to assess the prognostic value of various markers such as, but not limited to, SCD30, IL10, CCL17, CCL22, and MDC.
* To create tissue microarrays (TMAs) from patient tumor blocks for future biomarker assessment including, but not limited to, bcl-2, FOXP3, and macrophage content.
* To measure serum TARC levels pre-treatment and post two courses of ABVD and correlate with PET-CT findings (performed at same time points) and 3 year PFS.

Tertiary

* To assess the predictive value of fludeoxyglucose F 18 (18FDG) uptake, as measured by semi-quantitative measurements including standard uptake variables (SUVs), with respect to response at the end of chemotherapy and PFS.
* To compare the predictive value for response and PFS of FDG uptake alone to that of FDG uptake in combination with CT size change information.
* To compare the predictive value for response and PFS of FDG uptake alone to that of FDG uptake in combination with available serum and tissue molecular biomarkers.
* To compare the results of the secondary imaging objectives with the corresponding CALGB 50801 results (contingent on reaching agreement with CALGB on the combined analysis of the two studies).

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Induction ABVD chemotherapy: Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV, bleomycin sulfate IV, vinblastine IV over 3-5 minutes, and dacarbazine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are then assigned to an intervention arm according to fludeoxyglucose F 18 (18 FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) results (negative vs positive).

* ABVD (18FDG-PET/CT negative): Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine, and dacarbazine as in induction chemotherapy. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Within 3-6 weeks after completion of chemotherapy, patients undergo involved-node radiotherapy (INRT) 5 days a week for approximately 3½ weeks.
* Escalated or standard BEACOPP\* (18FDG-PET/CT positive): Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes on day 1, etoposide IV over 60 minutes on days 1-3, procarbazine hydrochloride orally (PO) on days 1-7, prednisone PO on days 1-14, and bleomycin sulfate IV and vincristine sulfate IV on day 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Within 3-6 weeks after completion of chemotherapy, patients who achieve complete response with a negative 18FDG-PET/CT scan undergo INRT 5 days a week for approximately 3½ weeks.

NOTE: \*HIV-positive patients whose 18FDG-PET/CT scans are positive after two courses of induction ABVD receive 4 courses of standard BEACOPP followed by INRT.

Patients undergo 18FDG-PET scans at baseline, and within 8-10 days after 2 courses of ABVD induction chemotherapy. Patients also undergo 18FDG-PET/CT\*\* scan within 3-8 weeks after completion of 4 courses of BEACOPP and 6 courses of ABVD, and 3 months after completion of INRT.

NOTE: \*\*If PET/CT remains positive, then a biopsy may be performed if medically appropriate or clinically feasible at the discretion of the treating physician. If biopsy is positive, patients will be followed for survival and secondary malignancies or new primaries.

Patients may undergo blood sample collection for correlative studies.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 2 years, and then annually for up to 10 years.
