Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Experimental: BEACOPP therapy - Patients receive 4 cycles of BEACOPP therapy. Drugs utilized in this regimen include Bleomycin (B), Etoposide (E), Doxorubicin (A), Cyclophosphamide (C), Vincristine (O), Prednisone (P) and Procarbazine (P). Each cycle lasts 21 days and is characterized by intravenous pulses of Etoposide (Days 0-2), Doxorubicin (Day 0), Cyclophosphamide (Day 0), Bleomycin (Day 7), Vincristine (Day 7). Seven days of oral procarbazine (Days 0-6) and 14 days of oral prednisone (Days 0-13) are given during each cycle.

Growth factor support with Filgrastim (G-CSF) is given by subcutaneous injection daily beginning Day 8. Response will then be determined and stratification for further treatment.
