Specific inclusion criteria for cohort 1:

  • grade I

Specific inclusion criteria for cohort 2:

  • grade IIB (retroperitoneal adenopathy diameter between 2 cm and 5 cm, regardless of the LDH)
  • grade IIC (retroperitoneal adenopathy diameter higher than 5 cm, regardless of the LDH)
  • grade III of good prognosis (supradiaphragmatic reach with ganglionic and LDH \< 2 times normal limit and/or supradiaphragmatic reach with pulmonary metastasis and LDH \< 2 times normal limit) either at initial diagnosis or relapse of a grade I seminoma)
  • PET-TDM positive (pathological fixation on metastatic lesions)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria shared:

  • Patient infected by , or C
  • History, within 5 years, of cancer other than seminoma, except for treated skin cancer (Basal Cell) .
  • visceral
  • cerebral metastasis
  • Any physical or mental condition incompatible with the treatment (to the investigator discretion)
  • Uncontrolled or severe cardiovascular pathology
  • Uncontrolled or severe hepatic pathology
  • Persons deprived of liberty or under guardianship
  • Unable to undergo medical monitoring due to geographical, social or psychological reasons
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(8)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Rate of patients without pathological fixation

    Rate of patients without pathological fixation at the time of the inclusion PET-TDM (cohort 1) or at the time of the PET-TDM following two cycles of chemotherapy (Etoposiede+Cisplatine) (cohort 2) and getting a lighten protocol

    Time frame: Assessed at the time of inclusion or after 2 cycles of chemotherapy, up to 21 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Rate of patients without pathological fixation

    Rate of patients without pathological fixation at the time of the inclusion PET-TDM (cohort 1) or at the time of the PET-TDM following two cycles of chemotherapy (Etoposiede+Cisplatine) (cohort 2)

    Time frame: Assessed at the time of inclusion or after 2 cycles of chemotherapy, up to 21 days

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Assessed up to 5 years
