Combined modality treatment improves tumor control and overall survival in patients with early stage Hodgkin's lymphoma: a systematic review.
Combined modality treatment (CMT) of chemotherapy followed by localized radiotherapy is standard treatment for patients with early stage Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, the role of radiotherapy has been questioned recently and some clinical study groups advocate chemotherapy only for this indication. We thus performed a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing...

PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of 45 patients with follicular grade 3 lymphoma who were treated with rituximab and the combination of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) at The University of Texas MD Anderso...
متن کاملCombined-modality therapy for early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma: maintaining high cure rates while minimizing risks.
Multiple randomized studies have demonstrated that chemotherapy, most commonly ABVD (doxorubicin [Adriamycin], bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine), followed by consolidation radiation therapy is the most effective treatment program for early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma. With a combined-modality approach, the great majority of patients are cured of their disease. It is also apparent that both chemot...
متن کاملEarly Stage W.H.O. Grade I and II Follicular Lymphoma Treated with Radiation Therapy Alone
OBJECTIVES This retrospective study was undertaken to evaluate the outcome of patients with stage I or II (limited stage), grade I-II follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (FL) treated with radiation therapy (RT) alone as initial management. METHODS Patients with stage I or II and pathologically confirmed WHO grade I or II FL treated initially with RT alone between 1982 and 2008 were identified f...
متن کاملContemporary radiation therapy in combined modality therapy for Hodgkin lymphoma.
The advent of effective combination chemotherapy markedly changed the management of Hodgkin lymphoma, establishing combined modality therapy as the standard of care for most patients with this disease. In response, significant interest has been shown in refining the delivery of radiation in the combined modality setting such that toxicity is minimized while still preserving disease control. An ...
