Abstract:
This article offers a review about the current facts of chemotherapy in testicular cancer. Besides a short presentation of the guideline-standard therapy the authors deal with the question as to why testicular cancer shows an extraordinarily high chemosensibility compared to other tumours. Furthermore, the current data on alternative chemotherapies as well as of molecular, molecular-genetic and pharmacogenetic therapeutic concepts are explored. Data were obtained from researches in Medline of the Pubmed database.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
