1 Poor-prognostic advanced Germ Cell Tumors Karim Fizazi, MD, PhD Institut Gustave Roussy, France Metastatic GCT: Prognosis (IGCCC) Good prognosis Intermediate prognosis Poor prognosis J Clin Oncol 1997, 15:

3 4 BEP are not 5, 6, or 7 Giving additional cycles of BEP: Did not demonstrate any improvement in outcome Increases the risk of: severe paresthesia, auditive toxicity, neutropenic fever, and fertility troubles Giving > 4 BEP makes your patient at a 2% risk of meeting this: 2% risk of secondary acute leukemia if etoposide > 2 g/m 2 80% mortality a rate similar to that after a cobra bite. Kollmansberger, J Clin Oncol 1998, 16:

8 Poor prognosis NSGCT: where did we stand until 2013? No progress demonstrated by randomized trials in the last 25 years However, general improvement observed (from 45% to 60% survival): Patient education (lower tumor burden)? Referral to well-trained centers (Collette JNCI 1999)? Improvement in the management of chemotherapy side effects? Improvement in surgery? Others? Management of pts at high risk of ARDS: «Very high risk NSGCT» ARDS 13/15 (87%) Death from ARDS Longterm survivor Extensive lung mets Dyspnea or po2< /10 (30%) Total 16/25 10/15 2/10 12/25 4/15 (27%) 4/10 (40%) 8/25 Massard C, Ann Oncol

11 Calculation of tumor marker decline Decline rates are calculated using a logarithmic formula : M0=initial marker value; M1=marker value at 3 w; MN=Normal value Tumor marker decline = 3 A / B A = log(m0)-log(mn) B = log(m0)-log(m1) Patients can then be classified into 4 categories as follows : AM Normal at cycle 1 and at cycle 2 BM Abnormal at cycle 1 and Normalization at cycle 2 CM Abnormal cycle 1 and TNM < TM DM Abnormal cycle 1 and TNM TM or abnormal and increasing marker at cycle 2 Cut-off points (TM) vary for each marker: TAFP = 9 w, ThCG = 6 w A favorable pattern of decline is defined by hcg and AFP being both A, B, or C.

19 We still need to demonstrate that sequential HD is superior to standard doses The TIGER trial: TIP vs TICE Conclusion Prognostic role of tumor marker decline clearly established Early intensification in pts with unfavorable decline after 1 BEP improves PFS (GETUG 13): new standard treatment HD chemotherapy in the salvage setting: Cures (some) patients Lack of predictive factor to identify who benefits Sequential > single HD (less toxic deaths) Sequential HD > standard-dose still to be demonstrated (Tiger) 19
