Brief Summary:
This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy based on positron emission tomography (PET) scan works in treating patients with stage I or stage II Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells and allow doctors to save the part of the body where the cancer started. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures, such as PET scan, done before, during, and after chemotherapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) at 36-Months for Patients Who Received 4 Cycles of ABVD [ Time Frame: 36 Months ]
    The primary objective of this trial is to estimate the 3 year PFS in patients who received 4 cycles of ABVD. PFS for each patient is measured as the time from registration on trial to the first incident of death or progression. The PFS at 36 months is calculated as the number of patients who have a progression-free survival time greater than 36 months divided by the total number of patients that started treatment. For this endpoint, all patients that received 4 cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) are included.

  2. 36 Month Progression Free Survival Rate of Patients Receiving 4 Cycles of ABVD Versus Patients Receiving 2 Cycles of ABVD and 2 Cycles of BEACOPP and Radiation. [ Time Frame: at 36 months ]
    All patients received an initial 2-28 day cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) on Days 1 and 15. After the first 2 cycles of ABVD, PET/CT was performed and submitted for central review (cycle 2, days 23-25) and determined whether patients would receive 2 cycles of escalated BEACOPP and involved-field RT (IFRT) or an additional 2 cycles of ABVD. PFS for each patient is measured as the time from registration on trial to the first incident of death or progression. The PFS rate at 36 months is calculated as the number of patients who have a progression-free survival time greater than 36 months divided by the total number of patients that started treatment. For this endpoint, we compare the PFS rate between patients who received 4 cycles of ABVD and patients who received 2 cycles of ABVD and 2 cycles of IFRT.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete Response Rate [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    A Complete Response (CR) was defined as having the following conditions: 1. A complete disappearance of all detectable clinical evidence of disease and disease-related symptoms if present before therapy. 2. In patients with a PET scan that was positive before therapy, a post-treatment residual mass of any size is permitted as long as it is PET-negative. A Complete Response rate was defined as the number of patients who achieved a CR divided by the number of patients that were eligible for analysis in each group. The CR rate was calculated for patients that completed 4 cycles of ABVD and for patients that completed 2 cycles of ABVD and 2 cycles of BEACOPP and IFRT.
