De-escalation Study for Stage IIa/IIb < 3 cm Seminoma
Prospective Therapeutic De-escalation and miRNA-M371 Biomarker Evaluation Phase II Study for Stage IIa/IIb < 3 cm Seminomas
Centre Leon Berard
90 participants
Sep 6, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Phase II, multicenter, prospective, randomized, non-comparative, de-escalation study. Patients with stage IIa/IIb \< 3 cm seminoma histologically proved after orchiectomy will be included in the study and will receive 1 cycle of Etoposide Cisplatine (EP) chemotherapy. Patients with negative week-3 PET-scan after the EP cycle, will be randomized (1:1 ratio, stratification according to the disease stage (stage IIa versus IIb seminoma)) to receive either radiotherapy (RT) boost on lymph nodes or 1 cycle of carboplatin AUC7 chemotherapy. Patients with positive week-3 PET-scan will received 3 additional cycles of EP chemotherapy. In parallel, eligible patients scheduled to receive standard lombo-aortic RT will be registered in an observational cohort.
Eligibility

- Good prognosis according to IGCCCG and LDH < 2.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN).
- Normal alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) before and after orchiectomy.
- No prior treatment with radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) ≤ 2.

- Uncontrolled or severe cardiovascular pathology.
- Uncontrolled or severe hepatic pathology.
- Patient deprived of liberty or requiring tutorship or curatorship.
