Aim. To assess the efficacy and toxicity of intensive 6 courses EACOPP-14 treatment with or without radiotherapy (RT) for advanced stages of Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL).

Materials & Methods. From November 2009 to February 2015, 95 patients with advanced stages of HL (IIX–IIE, III–IV) aged between 17 and 50 years (median 29 years) were selected for the participation in the protocol ЛХМосква1-3. The study population consisted of 46.3 % men and 53.7 % women. The results of the treatment were assessed in 91 patients who have received more than 2 courses of EACOPP-14. The follow up period was at least 3 months after the receiving the therapy. Consolidation RT with a total dose of 30 Gy for residual tumor lesions and/or initially large tumors was performed after the chemotherapy.

Results. Complete remission was achieved in 82 (90.1 %) patients, partial remission in 2 (2.2 %), and the progression was observed in 7 (7.7 %) patients. The overall 4-year survival rate was 90.8 %, the progression-free survival was 88.2 %. The toxicity of the ЕАСОРР-14 program was slightly lower than that of 8 courses of ВЕАСОРРesc, and was comparable to the toxicity of other modifications of intensified ВЕАСОРР scheme. Hematological toxicity grade 3 and 4 was most commonly observed: leukopenia was observed after 64.9 % of courses, anemia — after 24 % of courses, thrombocytopenia — after 3.8 % of courses. The rate of infections did not singificantly differ and accounted for 24 %. The most frequent non-infectious complications were mucositis (21.1 %) and polyneuropathy (11.7 %). Complications resulted in the change of treatment in only 3 (3.01 %) of patients. The exclusion of bleomycine from the ЕАСОРР-14 program reduced the frequency of RT complications. Grade 3 pulmonitis developed in 4.5 % of cases, while radiation-induce pulmonary fibrosis verified by CT developed in 15.2 % of cases. The ЕАСОРР-14 6 courses program showed its high efficacy both with and without RT, high tolerance and the possibility of full administration for the majority of patients with the various stages of HL.

Conclusion. Current research showed the efficacy of treatment without RT for patients with advanced stages of HL with negative PET results and small (< 2.5 cm) residual tumors after intensive ЕАСОРР-14 program. This approach allowed to avoid a number of late treatment complications.
