BACKGROUND: A prospective study was conducted to assess the efficacy and toxicity of a salvage regimen consisting of CCNU, Melphalan, and VP-16 (CAV) given at 28-day intervals in patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) relapsing after primary therapy or refractory to the alternating MOPP/ABVD regimen.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study included 58 patients (median age: 34 years), with resistant or relapsing HD. Primary therapy had consisted of alternating MOPP/ABVD (81%) or MOPP alone (19%); 38% of patients were relapsing from prior complete remission (CR) while 62% had resistant disease. Extranodal disease was present in 55% and B-symptoms in 72% of patients; one-fifth had bulky disease and/or bone marrow involvement. The CAV was used as first salvage in half of the patients.
RESULTS: Complete remission was obtained in 17 patients (29%); unfavorable factors for CR in univariate analysis were the presence of bulky disease and the failure to achieve CR with prior therapy. Nine patients (53% of remitters) have subsequently relapsed with a 10-month median duration of CR. The 3-year overall survival after CAV was 25% with an 18-month median survival; significant differences in survival were found according to the extent of disease, the presence of B-symptoms and the HD status (prior sensitive or resistant disease, first or subsequent relapse). Seven patients are long-term remitters (12%), and one of them has been given high-dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation at relapse after CAV. The CAV toxicity was mostly hematological; severe pancytopenia occurred in six cases with two cases of fatal infections and one of fatal hemorrhage.
CONCLUSION: CAV therapy was moderately effective as third-line salvage in patients with HD resistant to alternating MOPP/ABVD or previously given two different regimens for relapse; the toxicity was mostly hematological and supportive therapy was needed in one-third of the patients.
