Chemotherapy Plus Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Hodgkin's Lymphoma

NCT00003631

Non-randomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy plus radiation therapy in treating patients with refractory or relapsed Hodgkin's lymphoma.
