Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with allogeneic or autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of allogeneic stem cell transplantation with that of autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or Hodgkin's disease.
Phase:
