FIRST RANDOMISATION: Patients are randomised to one of two chemotherapy regimens:
1. PA(B1)OE Regimen: Multi-drug chemotherapy with adriamycin, vincristine, prednisolone, etoposide and bleomycin (PA(B1)OE) repeated every 21 days for six to eight courses. Bleomycin is given for the first four course only.
2. Ch1VPP/PABLOE Regimen: Multi-drug chemotherapy with chlorambucil, procarbazine, prednisolone and vinblastine(CH1VPP) alternating with PA(B1)OE. The total cycle Ch1VPP/PA(B1)OE takes 7 weeks. A minimum of six, three each of Ch1VPP and PA(B1)OE, and a maximum of eight courses of chemotherapy to be given.
SECOND RANDOMISATION: Patients in complete remission following chemotherapy whose original presentation was with bulky (>5 cm) nodal disease are eligible for the second randomisation. Patients are randomised to one of two groups:
1. Group A: Radiotherapy 35-40 Gy given over 4 weeks.
