COPP, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone; NA, data not available.

*

Mann-Whitney U test was used for differences in age.

χ2 was used for differences in proportions.

χ2 performed for histology dichotomized as NS and non-NS histology.

§

Ten patients additionally received radiotherapy; in one, bleomycin was omitted owing to pulmonary dysfunction.
