To test the hypothesis that a chemotherapy regimen of relatively low toxicity and 11 weeks' duration (doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, vincristine, bleomycin, and prednisolone [VAPEC-B]) is at least as effective in terms of disease control as 6 months' treatment with chlorambucil, vinblastine, procarbazine, and prednisone/etoposide, vincristine, and doxorubicin (ChlVPP/EVA hybrid), which is associated with a high risk of permanent sterility.
