Abstract

The results of the treatment with MOPP/COPP program for 114 patients with advanced Hodgkin's disease are presented. Complete remission has been achieved in 74 patients (65%). Thirty four of them (30%) are still remaining in first remission. The relapse of disease was observed in 37 patients, in 16 of them during first 24 months of follow-up. Three patients were lost of observation. The analysis of these unsatisfactory long-term results suggests that more effective management policies for patients with advanced Hodgkin's disease are needed.
