Abstract

Twenty-seven patients with mediastinal Hodgkin disease were teated either by radiation therapy or chemotherapy. The rates of tumor regression were measured and were fitted into a three-parameter Gompertzian model. Tumor regression was more pronounced and prompt in patients treated with radiotherapy. The Gompertzian model matched the radiation therapy data closely in the first 90 days after initiation of therapy in cases of approximately equal tumor size.
