cycles of chemo.
IFRT with 21 Gy in 14 fxs given with AP:PA fields

History
 Treated with full-dose (35-45 Gy) extended-field RT




w/ excellent disease control but significant late toxicity
Chemotherapy (MOPP or ABVD) was shown to salvage
relapsed disease after RT and improve DFS when used
as part of initial therapy1,2
Low-dose RT (15-25 Gy) following chemotherapy was
shown to produce excellent EFS and OS3-5
Chemotherapy followed by low-dose RT became the
standard therapy
The most recent trials use risk-adapted and/or
response-adapted therapy
Risk groups
 Division into groups based on factors shown
to influence outcome
 Histology
 Clinical
stage
 B symptoms
 Bulky disease
Risk groups
 Prognostic stratification (not uniformly agreed on):

Low-risk/favorable: Stage I or II, no B symptoms, no bulky
disease and disease in fewer than 3 nodal regions

Intermediate-risk: Stage IB, IIB (or bulky disease and
extranodal involvement) and sometimes IIIA

High-risk: Stage IIIB, IVA/B
Early stage/favorable risk
 Goal = limit treatment-related toxicity and maintain
success of therapy
 Efficacy of various strategies is relatively equivalent


~90% or better EFS or PFS
~95% OS
 Treatment: 2-4 cycles of chemotherapy +/- involved
field RT

Response-adapted approach: Response to the first cycles of
chemotherapy determines inclusion of additional chemo or
dose of RT
Treatment and outcomes in early stage
pediatric Hodgkin disease
Early stage/favorable risk
Response-adapted approach
 SDS group study6,7: single arm study; 4 cycles of VAMP followed
by IFRT with RT dose determined by response to first 2 cycles
 PR (53%): 25 .5 Gy IFRT
15 Gy IFRT
 German HD958,9: OPPA or OEPA for two cycles
 CR (47%):
 CR (27%): observation
 PR with >75% reduction (53%): 25 Gy IFRT
 <75% reduction (~5%): 20-30 Gy IFRT + 5 Gy boost to >50 ml residual
 French MDH9010: 4 cycles of VBVP
 >70% response (85%): 20 Gy IFRT
 <70% response: 1 or 2 more cycles of OPPA and 20 or 40 Gy IFRT
 Despite the differences in treatment, all these studies had a EFS or PFS
of 93% or better
Early stage/favorable risk
Exclusion of RT
 POG 862511: Laparotomy-staged IA-IIIA disease
 4 cycles of MOPP/ABVD OR 2 cycles of MOPP/ABVD plus
25.5 Gy IFRT
 EFS (83% vs 91%) and OS (94% vs 97%) were statistically
equivalent
 CCG 594212: Clinically staged I-II disease
 4 cycles of COPP/ABV
 CRs randomized to observation vs. 21 Gy IFRT
 Stopped early after interim analysis indicated superiority of RT
arm (EFS 85% vs 93%) but OS was 100% in both arms
Intermediate and advanced stage disease
 More intensified regimens with a combination of
diverse chemotherapeutic agents
 Goal of minimizing treatment-related toxicity is still
important but studies that reduced alkylating agents
and anthracyclines with limited IFRT lead to
decreased EFS13,14
 RT continues to be standard therapy in this risk
group (unless on protocol)
Treatment and outcomes in intermediate/advanced
stage pediatric Hodgkin disease
Intermediate and advanced stage disease
 POG15: 8 cycles of MOPP/ABVD +/- total-nodal
irradiation

No diff by intent-to-treat analysis
 CCG 52116: 6 cycles MOPP alternating with 6 cycles of
ABVD vs 6 cycles of ABVD with 21 Gy extended-field RT


Equivalent outcome
EFS 77% vs 87%, P = .09; OS 84% vs 90%, P=.45
 German HD-958,9: 2 cycles of OPPA or OEPA +2-4 cycles
of COPP

>70% reduction in tumor volume: No RT
<70% reduction: IFRT

chemotherapy volumes
CTV encompasses post-chemo mediastianal width
laterally and pre-chemo extent in sup/inf direction
An anterior laryngeal block can be used if it does not
shield involved nodes
If the axillae are to be treated humeral head blocks
are used
CT based planning allows evaluation of adequate
CTV coverage and normal tissue dose
IFRT
 Whole-heart irradiation indications: pericardial
involvement/invasion
 Splenic irradiation is indicated in pts with splenic
involvement but renal dose must be limited to mean
<10.5 Gy or keep 2/3rds of the kidney to <15 Gy
 If the pelvis needs to be treated the ovaries should be
relocated and the dose should be limited to <3 Gy
 When treating a male, ensure on a daily basis that
the scrotum is not in the pelvic field
Late Toxicity of Radiotherapy
 Growth abnormalities17
 Bone and soft-tissue hypoplasia in prepubertal children
 Thyroid sequela18,19
 Hypothyroidism
 Hyperthyroidism
 Benign and malignant thyroid nodules
 17% of children treated with RT dose <26 Gy had thyroid
abnormalities compared to 78% with >26 Gy
Late Toxicity
 Cardiovascular disease20,21
 Atherosclerotic heart disease
 Valvular dysfunction
 Pericardial disease
 Pulmonary toxicity22
 Decrease in pulmonary function tests
 Sterility/Infertility: limit dose to ovaries to 3Gy
 Increase incidence of secondary cancers23-25
 Late effects study group: 30 yr cumulative incidence of SC =
26.3% in pts dx’ed before age 16
 Breast cancer was most elevated solid cancer
Late Toxicity
 Toxicities of higher dose RT are well documented but
it is less clear what toxicities will exist with 15-25 Gy
bc many toxicities are dose and volume dependent

Second solid cancer risk appears to be dose dependent with
patients w/ <23 Gy mediastinal RT with lower risk of
developing breast cancer26
Future Directions
 Improve the technique of response-adapted therapy
 Incorporate functional imaging into evaluating
treatment response and RT planning
 Improve upon late toxicities AND determine the
effects of decreased dose IFRT on late toxicities
 Refine risk categories
 Improve treatment regimen for high-risk disease
