About this trial

This is an open label randomized phase II trial of maintenance oral etoposide vs. observation in patinets with relapsed GCT treated with high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and peripheral-blood stem-cell transplant (PBSCT).

Disqualifiers

Relapsed pure seminoma

Rising tumor markers (AFP and hCG) at time of screening

Patients who completed 2nd cycle of HDCT (time since last dose of HDCT) >16 weeks ago

Treatment with any investigational agent within 28 days prior to study registration

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

12-month Progression Free Survival

Investigator determination of tumor progression (clinical, radiographic, tumor markers including AFP and hCG)

Time frame
time from the date of randomization to the date of disease relapse or death (i.e. up to 1 year)

Secondary outcomes

1

12-month Overall Survival

Time frame
Time of registration to death from any cause (i.e. up to 1 year)
2

Assess toxicity and tolerability of maintenance etoposide

Toxicities according to CTCAE v5 will be summarized by frequencies and rates calculated as the proportion of patients in the safety population experiencing SAEs, discontinuations due to AEs, and AEs.

Time frame
through study completion (i.e. up to 2 years)
