Disseminated testicular cancer: current chemotherapy strategies
Semin Oncol.
1989 Aug.
Abstract
Disseminated testis cancer is a landmark adult solid tumor because of its high curability. In the last decade and a half, a number of clinical trials have been completed or are ongoing. In addition, long-term follow-up of some earlier trials is now available. This report summarizes the current treatment approaches, paying particular attention to the role of cisplatin.
