Study Description

Brief Summary

Study Objectives:

Primary objective

  • The primary objective of this study is to investigate the combination of cisplatin/gemcitabine/paclitaxel, with respect to complete remission in patients with germ cell tumours previously treated with BEP.

Secondary Objectives

  • Overall survival

  • Progression free survival

  • Response rates (RECIST)

  • Duration of response

  • To investigate the safety of paclitaxel, gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients previously treated with BEP
