Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation Following Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Hodgkin's Disease or Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Lymphoma

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have Hodgkin's disease or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
