Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus radiation therapy with radiation therapy alone in treating patients with early-stage Hodgkins disease
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the recurrence rate and long term survival of patients with early stage Hodgkins disease given vincristinedoxorubicinprednisolone etoposidecyclophosphamidebleomycin VAPEC-B chemotherapy and involved field radiation vs mantle radiotherapy

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are randomized to receive either vincristinedoxorubicinprednisoloneetoposidecyclophosphamide bleomycin VAPEC-B chemotherapy and involved field radiotherapy or mantle radiotherapy only Patients receiving VAPEC-B are given prednisolone daily on weeks 1-6 doxorubicin IV along with cyclophosphamide IV on week 1 doxorubicin IV and etoposide orally for 5 days on week 3 and vincristine and bleomycin IV on weeks 2 and 4 Involved field radiotherapy is commenced at week 6 within 14 to 21 days of the last chemotherapy treatment Patients randomized to receive mantle radiotherapy only are given treatments daily for 4 weeks Patients are followed every 3 months for the first two years every 4 months for the third year every 6 months for the fourth and fifth years and annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL 400 patients will be accrued over 4-5 years
