What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating a therapeutic strategy guided by 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET-TDM) for patients with grade I or metastatic seminoma. The study aims to determine the proportion of patients who can receive a lighter treatment approach based on PET-TDM results. This phase 2 trial focuses on patients with seminoma, a type of testicular cancer, and assesses outcomes such as pathological fixation rate and progression-free survival. Participants are assigned to one of two groups: cohort 1 includes patients with grade I seminoma, and cohort 2 includes patients with metastatic seminoma of specific grades (IIB, IIC, or III) and positive PET-TDM results. Treatments involve carboplatin dosed according to kidney function and area under the curve (AUC). Cohort 2 also receives etoposide and cisplatin over five days. The study uses PET-TDM to guide the therapeutic approach, adjusting treatments based on imaging findings. During the study, patients undergo PET-TDM scans and receive chemotherapy as assigned. Researchers measure the rate of patients without pathological fixation at inclusion or after two chemotherapy cycles, within 21 days. Long-term follow-up includes progression-free survival monitored for up to five years. Safety and treatment response are assessed regularly to understand treatment effects and outcomes over time.
