Abstract

Bleomycin and its combinations have a definite place in the treatment of metastatic testicular carcinomas other than seminomas and may also prove to be effective, when given as adjuvant postoperative therapy in state II disease. A study, using the combination of Bleomycin and CCNU in 17 patients with metastatic testicular teratoma, is reported. A remission rate of 59% has been observed. Only patients with a complete remission had a satisfactory remission duration. Sequential combinations, using all drugs effective in this disease, may be the most promising way to further improve therapeutic results in terms of remission rate and survival.
