Purpose: Doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine (ABVD) chemotherapy is the current standard treatment for early-stage Hodgkins lymphoma (HL). The use of consolidative radiation therapy (RT) in addition to chemotherapy may lead to better survival rates but is controversial because of concerns about long-term toxicity. The aim of this study is to compare outcomes of patients receiving ABVD chemotherapy alone (CTX alone) versus ABVD with consolidative RT (CMT).
