Abstract |
Hodgkin's disease (HD) is the most common non-AIDS-defining malignancy in HIV-infected patients. Its unusually aggressive tumour behaviour includes a higher frequency of unfavourable histologic subtypes, high-stage and extranodal involvement by the time of presentation (anal canal, stomach), and poor therapeutic outcome, in comparison with HD outside the HIV setting. The optimal therapeutic strategy is still controversial, and median overall survival is short, ranging from 12 to 18 months. Thus, there is a need to identify the efficacy and safety of different interventions for AIDS-associated HD on overall survival and disease-free survival in treatment-naive adults with AIDS. |
