Five years' experience with ChlVPP: effective low-toxicity combination chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease.

Abstract:

:Since 1975, 191 patients with Hodgkin's disease have been treated with a combination of chlorambucil, vinblastine, procarbazine and prednisolone (ChlVPP). Complete remission rates were 73% for previously untreated patients, 91% for patients previously treated with radiotherapy and 55% for patients previously treated with chemotherapy. In 59 patients with advanced disease who received no other treatment, a 5-year survival rate of 66% was comparable with that achieved by more toxic mustine-containing combinations. ChlVPP has few side effects, is easily given to outpatients, and can be combined with elective radiotherapy in selected patients.
