In Sites of Initial Bulk Disease (n=120) 26 (59) 40 (80) 20 (77) 31 (82) 3 (75)
In Sites of Initial Non-bulk Disease (n=148) 44 (75) 36 (71) 20 (65) 43 (83) 5 (100)

RER, no CR: Rapid early responder without complete response; SER: Slow early responder; RER, CR, IFRT: Rapid early responder with complete response randomized to involved-field radiotherapy treatment arm; RER, CR, no IFRT: Rapid early responder with complete response randomized to the no radiation treatment arm.
