Abstract:
Nineteen men with advanced germ-cell tumours were treated with a combination of vinblastine, bleomycin and cis-diamminedichloroplatinum II (cis-platinum). One patient died nine days after starting chemotherapy. Seventeen patients responded to therapy (14 completely and three partially). Toxicity was very high, and three patients died of septicaemia during therapy. Eight patients remain in complete remission 36 to 80 weeks after starting chemotherapy.
