Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Histologically confirmed germ cell tumor (seminoma or non-seminoma) with measurable metastatic disease either by radiography (at a site which has previously not been irradiated) or elevation of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and/or elevation of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-HCG);
* Patient previously treated with standard BEP (3 or 4 cycles) with relapse 1 months or more after favorable response on previous chemotherapy (CR or PR)
* Male
* Age greater than or equal to 18 years;
* Performance status 0,1,2 or 3
* WBC \> 3000 mill/l, ANC \> 1500 mill/l, platelet count \> 100.000 mill/l; serum bilirubin \< 1.5 x the upper limit of normal;
* Adequate renal function (Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) \>60 ml/min). GFR will be assessed by direct measurement (EDTA clearance or creatinine clearance)
* signed informed consent;

Exclusion Criteria

* Uncontrolled active severe clinical infection (CTC grade 3 or 4).
* Serious concomitant systemic disorders incompatible with the study (at the discretion of the investigator), including expected difficulty of follow-up related to mental disorders.
* Grade 2 or greater peripheral neuropathy according to the CTC, version 3.0.
* Second malignancy other than basal or squamous cell skin cancer.
