No prior therapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma (exception: pre-phase treatment with corticosteroids and vinca-alkaloids for a maximum of seven days may not preclude trial participation if clinically indicated and all staging examinations have been performed; all forms of prior radiotherapy preclude trial participation) 4. Age: 18-60 years 5. Signed informed consent with understanding of the study procedures and the investigational nature of the study 6. Patient agrees that personal data and tissue samples are provided to the GHSG (protection of privacy as defined by law will be ensured) 7.

Non compliance: Refusal of blood products during treatment, epilepsy, drug dependency, change of residence abroad, prior cerebral injury or similar circumstances which appear to make protocol treatment or long-term follow-up impossible 12.
