beta(2)-microglobulin in Hodgkin's lymphoma: prognostic significance in patients treated with ABVD or equivalent regimens.

Journal of B.U.ON. : official journal of the Balkan Union of Oncology

Vassilakopoulos TP, Nadali G, Angelopoulou MK, Dimopoulou MN, Siakantaris MP, Kontopidou FN, Karkantaris C, Kokoris SI, Dimitriadou EM, Calpadaki C, Sarantopoulos A, Galani Z, Sachanas S, Kyrtsonis MC, Tsaftaridis P, Variamis E, Panayotidis P, Pizzolo G, Sarris AH, Pangalis GA.
PMID: 17335133
J BUON. 2005 Jan-Mar;10(1):59-69.

PURPOSE: Serum beta-2 microglobulin (sbeta(2)m) is an established prognostic factor for several lymphoproliferative disorders. Because its significance in Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is controversial, we determined sbeta(2)m levels in pretreatment serum samples of patients with HL in order to elucidate...
