Hyper-CVAD Hyper-CVAD is a chemotherapy regimen used to treat some forms of leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma (high grade) and lymphoblastic lymphoma ==Summary==
Hyper-CVAD chemotherapy consists of two combinations of drugs (courses A and B) given in an alternating fashion. The term 'hyper' refers to the hyperfractionated nature of the chemotherapy, which is given in smaller doses, more frequently, to minimize side effects. 'CVAD' is the acronym of the drugs used in course A: cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin (also known by its trade name, Adriamycin), and dexamethasone. Course B consists of methotrexate and cytarabine. The protocol was originally developed to treat leukemia in young, fit patients, due to its intensity, but has since begun to be used more widely.
