RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients undergoing treatment with HIV infection and Hodgkin lymphoma may help doctors learn more about the effects of therapy on HIV.
PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in blood samples from patients with HIV infection and stage III or stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma undergoing chemotherapy.
Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Lymphoma Nonneoplastic Condition | Genetic: DNA analysis Genetic: RNA analysis Other: laboratory biomarker analysis |
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To quantify HIV-1 persistence in prospectively collected samples from patients on suppressive antiretroviral therapy undergoing chemotherapy for Hodgkin lymphoma.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Blood samples are collected before, during, and after treatment for lymphoma for HIV-1 RNA levels using standard and single copy assays and HIV-1 DNA quantification (peripheral blood mononuclear cells).
After completion of treatment, patients are followed up periodically for up to 2 years.
