not relevant


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);

more after favorable response on previous chemotherapy (CR or PR)

- Male

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:
