S0816 Fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT Imaging and Combination Chemotherapy With or Without Additional Chemotherapy and G-CSF in Treating Patients With Stage III or Stage IV Hodgkin Lymphoma

Percentage of HIV-negative Patients With 2-year Overall Survival (OS) Treated With 2 Initial Cycles of ABVD Followed by Response-Adapted Therapy Based on Interim FDG-PET Imaging

Measured from date of registration to date of death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and are censored at date of last contact.

Time frame: 2 years

Complete and Partial Response Rates for HIV-negative Patients Treated With Response- Adapted Therapy Based on FDG-PET Imaging After 2 Cycles of ABVD

Complete Response (CR) is a complete disappearance of all disease with the exception of the following. If no PET scan or when the PET scan was positive before therapy, a post-treatment residual mass of any size is permitted if it is PET negative. If the PET scan was negative before therapy, all nodal masses at baseline must have regressed. No new lesions. Previously enlarged organs must have regressed and not be palpable. Bone marrow (BM) must be negative if positive at baseline. Normalization of markers. Partial Response (PR) is a 50% decrease in the sum of products of greatest diameters (SPD) for up to 6 identified dominant lesions, including spleenic and hepatic nodules from baseline. No new lesions and no increase in the size of liver, spleen or other nodes. If PET scan or when the PET scan was positive before therapy, PET should be positive in at least one previously involved site.

Time frame: 7 months after registration

Number of HIV-negative Patients With Grade 3 Through Grade 5 Adverse Events That Are Related to Study Drug

Adverse Events (AEs) are reported by the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. For each patient, worst grade of each event type is reported. Grade 3 = Severe, Grade 4 = Life-threatening, Grade 5 = Fatal.

Time frame: Up to 1 year

Percentage of HIV-positive Patients With 2-year Progression-free Survival (PFS) Treated With Initial 2 Cycles of Adriamycin, Bleomycin, Vnblastine, and Dacarbazine (ABVD) Followed by Response-adapted Therapy Based on Interim FDG-PET Imaging.

Disease progression is defined using the 2007 revised Cheson et al. criteria that is at least 50% increase in sum of the product of the diameters (SPD) of target measurable nodal lesions over the smallest sum observed, or \>= 50% increase in greatest transverse diameter (GTD) of any nodal \> 1 cm in shortest axis, or \>= 50% increase in the SPD of other target measurable lesions over the smallest sum observed, any new bone marrow involvement, any new lesion, lymph node with long axis is \>1.5 cm or if both long and short axes are \> 1 cm, PET positive if patients with no pretreatment PET scan or when PET scan was positive before therapy. progression-free survival is measured from date of registration to date of first observation of progressive disease, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and progression-free are censored at date of last contact.

Time frame: 2 years

Percentage of HIV-positive Patients With 5-year Overall Survival (OS) Treated With 2 Initial Cycles of ABVD Followed by Response-Adapted Therapy Based on Interim FDG-PET Imaging.

Measured from date of registration to date of death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and are censored at date of last contact.

Time frame: 5 years
