Fourteen patients with Hodgkin's disease resistant to ABVD were treated with MOPP chemotherapy (nitrogen mustard, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisone). Complete remission was obtained in 6 patients (43%). Four of the 6 complete responders are disease free after 5, 20, 23, 35 months. The actuarial median survival after MOPP of all patients is 20 months. These data confirm that there is no "cross-resistance" among the drugs included in the two schedules.
