Summary
This study tested a shorter course of chemotherapy (Stanford V) in 88 children and young adults with favorable Hodgkin lymphoma. Those who still had signs of cancer after chemo also received low-dose radiation to the affected area. The goal was to see if this approach could improve the number of patients whose cancer completely disappears, while reducing long-term side effects. Results help doctors find the right balance of treatment intensity for this group.
