  • Title: Vinblastine, bleomycin, and cis-platin as salvage therapy for MOPP treated patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
    Author: Corder MP, Clamon GH, Wiesenfeld M.
    Journal: Cancer Invest; 1984; 2(3):193-8. PubMed ID: 6203626.
    Abstract:
    Seven patients with active Hodgkin's lymphoma who had relapsed 4-39 months following six or more cycles of MOPP were treated with a combination of vinblastine-bleomycin-cis-platin (VBP). Six patients attained a partial response of 1-8 months duration. There were no complete responses. The projected maximum long-term disease-free survivorship with this salvage program is less than 16%. All observed patients had Grade II-III nausea and vomiting, and neutrophil nadir counts less than 700/mm3. Three patients had platelet counts less than or equal to 85,000/mm3. This program does not have significant potential as a salvage therapy for patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma relapsing after MOPP chemotherapy.
