Intensive therapy with cyclophosphamide, carmustine, etoposide +/- cisplatin, and autologous bone marrow transplantation for Hodgkin's disease in first relapse after combination chemotherapy [see comments]

Leukemia/Bone Marrow Transplantation Program of British Columbia, Vancouver General Hospital, Canada.

The optimal timing in which to use intensive chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in Hodgkin's disease (HD) is uncertain. In 1985, we initiated a program in which this modality was used as the initial salvage therapy in patients relapsing after combination chemotherapy. Fifty-eight patients with HD in first relapse after primary chemotherapy received conditioning with high-dose cyclophosphamide, carmustine, etoposide (VP16-213) +/- cisplatin (CBV +/- P) followed by autologous BMT. All but six of these patients were given a median of two cycles of conventional chemotherapy +/- involved field radiation therapy before CBV +/- P and autologous BMT. These measures were not used as a means for patients selection; all patients receiving such therapy ultimately were transplanted. The probability of nonrelapse mortality, progression of HD, and progression-free survival post-BMT were calculated, and prognostic factors for progression-free survival were evaluated using the Cox proportional hazards method. Treatment-related deaths occurred in only three patients. Thirteen patients have relapsed at a median 0.7 years (range 0.1 to 3.5) post- BMT. At a median follow-up of 2.3 years (range 0.4 to 7.2), the actuarial progression-free survival is 64% (95% confidence interval, 46% to 78%). In the statistical analysis, three similarly weighted but independent prognostic factors were identified: "B" symptoms at relapse, extranodal disease at relapse, and initial remission duration of less than 1 year. Patients with no risk factors had a 3-year progression-free survival of 100%, compared with 81% in patients with one factor, 40% in those with two factors, and 0% in patients with all three factors. CBV +/- P and autologous BMT is highly effective salvage therapy for HD patients in a first relapse, particularly in the subset of patients with less than two adverse factors. Therapy must be improved in the future for patients with > or = 2 adverse factors.
