NCT01726374

Brief Summary

High-risk stage 1 NSGCTTs are curable with careful surveillance followed by 3 cycles of BEP (bleomycin, etoposide, cisplatin with 500mg/m2 of etoposide per cycle) chemotherapy for the 40-50% of cases experiencing recurrence. Alternatively, adjuvant chemotherapy with 2 cycles of BEP(at a lower dose than that used for advanced disease - etoposide 360mg/m2) for these patients achieves the same outcome and avoids intensive surveillance, but delivers 33% more chemotherapy cycles on a population basis. If a single cycle of BEP at the dose used in advanced disease had a similar high rate of relapse-free survival (cure) to that seen with two lower dose cycles, this would reduce the overall burden of chemotherapy and healthcare resource usage and would be likely to lead to a change in practice globally.

  • No previous chemotherapy
  • WBC \> 1.5 x 10\^9/l and platelets 100 x 10\^9/l
  • Fit to receive chemotherapy
  • Able to start BEP(500) chemotherapy as part of 111 study within 6\* weeks of orchidectomy
  • Written informed consent \*If there are unavoidable delays this timescale can be extended to 8 weeks

You may not qualify if:

  • All patients with pure seminoma
  • All patients with non-seminoma or combined NSGCT + seminoma \> stage 1
  • All patients with no vascular invasion
  • Previous chemotherapy
  • Patients with second malignancy except contralateral TIN and contralateral germ cell tumour treated by orchidectomy and subsequent surveillance of more than 3 years
  • Co-morbidity precluding the safe administration of BEP(500) chemotherapy
  • Patients with renal function impairment (bilirubin \>1.25 x ULN and/or AST \>2 x ULN)
  • Patients with pre-existing neuropathy
  • Patients with pulmonary fibrosis
  • Patients with serious illness or medical conditions incompatible with the protocol
