Here is a study from Duke
Here is a study from Duke University that says the relapse rate for Hodgkin’s lymphoma can range from 5% for early stages to up to 35% for those in advanced stages. The article also goes on to discuss treatment options in the event of a relapse. It is important to remember that these are averages and that each individual patient is unique and responds differently to treatment.
