- Afebrile for 3 consecutive days*
[Note: *Prior to randomization portion of study] Expected Enrollment Approximately 460 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years. Outline This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified
according to number of poor prognostic factors (3 vs 4 vs 5) and stage of
disease (III vs IV). Patients receive induction chemotherapy consisting of doxorubicin IV
over 5 minutes, bleomycin IV over 10 minutes, vinblastine IV over 5 minutes,
and dacarbazine IV over 15-30 minutes on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeats
every 28 days for 5 courses in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity. Patients who show at least partial response after the
fifth course of induction chemotherapy and whose blood counts have recovered
are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. - Arm I: Patients receive 3 additional courses of induction chemotherapy
for a total of 8 courses.
- Arm II: Patients receive 1 additional course of induction chemotherapy
followed by stem cell collection. Patients then receive high-dose
chemotherapy with carmustine IV over 2 hours on days -6 to -4, etoposide IV
over 4 hours on day -4, and cyclophosphamide IV on day -2. Patients undergo
autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on day 0.
Patients are followed at 60 days, every 3 months for 1 year, every 6
months for 2 years, and then annually thereafter.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
