In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

GETUG-13 study has prospectively confirmed poor outcomes in advanced germ cell tumors (GCT) patients with unfavorable decrease of tumor markers after 1 cycle of BEP chemotherapy. There is an unmet medical need to improve outcomes in this subset of patients, however the dose-dense regimen proposed in the above-mentioned trial cannot be implemented in routine clinical practice. T-BEP regimen may have advantage over the traditional BEP regimen as first-line therapy for poor-risk GCT Treatment escalation with T-BEP regimen may be an effective and tolerable therapeutic option for advanced GCT patients with unfavorable tumor markers decline.

Fizazi study in JCO 2004. * Signed informed consent before protocol-specific procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * Primary intracranial germ-cell tumors; * Patients with seminomas or dysgerminomas; * Patients with normal range of serum tumor markers before starting treatment; * Patients with favorable tumor markers decline; * Patients infected by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV); * Patients with contraindications to taxane agents (hypersensitivity to paclitaxel); * Patients who do not fit inclusion criteria.
