Chemotherapy of disseminated germ cell testicular tumors with cis-diamminedichloroplatinum and other drugs
The effect of single CDDP therapy and PVB therapy was examined in 7 cases of stage III germ cell testicular tumors with measurable metastases. The mean age of the patients was 30.6 years old, and their histological types of primary sites were seminoma in 3 cases, embryonal carcinoma in 2, immature t...

| Zusammenfassung: | The effect of single CDDP therapy and PVB therapy was examined in 7 cases of stage III germ cell testicular tumors with measurable metastases. The mean age of the patients was 30.6 years old, and their histological types of primary sites were seminoma in 3 cases, embryonal carcinoma in 2, immature teratoma in 1 case and embryonal carcinoma + teratoma in 1 case. In 1 case of seminoma, 375 mg of CDDP was administered. In 1 case of embryonal carcinoma + teratoma, 100 mg of CDDP and then 2 courses of PVB therapy were performed, and 3 courses of PVB therapy were given in all other cases. Three cases showed complete response, 2 cases partial response and 2 cases no change. Pulmonary metastatic nodules were extirpated after the PVB therapy in 1 of the cases showing no change, and the histological examination of these nodules was found to be mature teratoma. As a result, the effectiveness of the chemotherapy alone was 71.4%, and that of chemotherapy + surgical operation was 85.7%. Significance of intensive chemotherapy and necessity of extirpation of residual metastatic nodules after intensive chemotherapy in the management of advanced germ cell testicular tumors are stressed |
