HD10

HD10 for Early Stages

Phase 3N = 1,370NCT00265018

Population
Newly diagnosed stage I or II Hodgkin's lymphoma with a favourable prognosis (GHSG definition).
Design
Multicentre randomised trial with four treatment groups: four cycles of ABVD then 30 Gy involved-field radiation therapy (group 1), four cycles of ABVD then 20 Gy (group 2), two cycles of ABVD then 30 Gy (group 3), or two cycles of ABVD then 20 Gy (group 4). The abstract reports the chemotherapy comparison (four versus two cycles, pooled over radiation dose) and the radiation-dose comparison (30 versus 20 Gy, pooled over chemotherapy) separately; it gives 5-year rates only for the chemotherapy comparison.

FFTF
Arms
  • 4 x ABVD + 30 Gy IFRT (group 1) (control): Four cycles of ABVD followed by 30 Gy involved-field radiation therapy
  • 4 x ABVD + 20 Gy IFRT (group 2) (experimental): Four cycles of ABVD followed by 20 Gy involved-field radiation therapy
  • 2 x ABVD + 30 Gy IFRT (group 3) (experimental): Two cycles of ABVD followed by 30 Gy involved-field radiation therapy
  • 2 x ABVD + 20 Gy IFRT (group 4) (experimental): Two cycles of ABVD followed by 20 Gy involved-field radiation therapy
  • Four cycles of ABVD (groups 1 and 2 pooled) (control): Four cycles of ABVD, either radiation dose (pooled analysis arm, not a randomised group)
  • Two cycles of ABVD (groups 3 and 4 pooled) (experimental): Two cycles of ABVD, either radiation dose (pooled analysis arm, not a randomised group)

Overall survival did not differ between the chemotherapy regimens (P=0.61). Radiation dose comparison (20 Gy versus 30 Gy): freedom from treatment failure P=1.00, overall survival P=0.61; the abstract gives no 5-year rates for this comparison. Acute toxic effects and adverse events were most common in group 1.
