InterventionFollowing registration all patients receive three, 3 week, cycles of chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine and prednisone (CHOP).

Patients who achieve a complete or partial response are randomised to one of three treatment groups:
1. Group A: Chemotherapy, three further cycles of CHOP.
2. Group B High dose therapy with cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation, 8 Gy or 12 Gy midplane dose in a single fraction at a dose rate of 0.15-0.3 Gy/min, followed by unpurged ABMT.
3. Group C: High dose therapy with cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation, 8 Gy or 12 Gy midplane dose in a single fraction at a dose rate of 0.15-0.3 Gy/min, followed by purged ABMT.

Randomisation to Group A is optional. Prior to randomisation clinicians must choose to randomise between all treatment or Group 2 and Group 3 only.
