Brief Summary:
This phase III trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy works in treating young patients with newly diagnosed 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Second-event-free Survival [ Time Frame: At 4 years from enrollment ]
    Second event here is defined as any relapse/progression of Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) or a previously reported second malignant neoplasm (SMN), a new SMN, or death after a first event which can be relapse/progression of HL, SMN, biopsy-proven HL following completion of Consolidation for Slow Early Response (SER) patient, positive bilateral bone marrow biopsy following completion of Consolidation for Stage IV patient, or death. If death occurs as the 1st event, it also counts as the 2nd event.

  2. Safety Analysis and Monitoring of Toxic Death [ Time Frame: Within 30 days of protocol treatment at median follow-up of 48 months (range: 1 to 70 months). ]
    The primary endpoint for safety analysis and monitoring is toxic death, which is death primarily attributable to treatment.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Event Free Survival [ Time Frame: At 3 years from enrollment ]
    Survival from enrollment to first event: relapse/progression, second malignancy, or death.

  2. Second-event-free Survival [ Time Frame: At 4 years from enrollment ]
    Second event here is defined as any relapse/progression of Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) or a previously reported second malignant neoplasm (SMN), a new SMN, or death after a first event which can be relapse/progression of HL, SMN, biopsy-proven HL following completion of Consolidation for Slow Early Response (SER) patient, positive bilateral bone marrow biopsy following completion of Consolidation for Stage IV patient, or death. If death occurs as the 1st event, it also counts as the 2nd event.

  3. Event-free Survival for Rapid Early Response (RER) Positron Emission Tomography(PET)-1 Positive, RER PET-1 Negative [ Time Frame: 3 years from enrollment ]
    To investigate whether very early response assessment measured by Fluorodeoxyglucose-PET after 1 cycle of chemotherapy identifies a subject cohort that can be studied in future trials and that is distinguishable from currently defined RER after 2 cycles.

  4. Relapse-free Survival [ Time Frame: 3 years from enrollment ]
    A description, survival to relapse, of patterns of relapse after Doxorubicin, Bleomycin, Vincristine, Etoposide - Prednisone, Cyclophosphamide (ABVE-PC) and risk-adapted radiotherapy.

  5. Grade 3 and 4 Non-hematologic Toxicities During Protocol Therapy [ Time Frame: During and after completion of study treatment. ]
    The number of patients that experience Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) Version 4 grade 3 or higher non-hematologic toxicity at any time during protocol therapy.

  6. Overall Survival [ Time Frame: At 3 years from enrollment ]
    Survival from enrollment to death.
