| Brief Title ICMJE | Temozolomide in Treating Patients With Metastatic Germ Cell Tumors That Have Not Responded to Cisplatin | ||||
| Official Title ICMJE | Phase II Trial of Temozolomide in Patients With Cisplatin-Refractory Germ Cell Tumors | ||||
| Brief Summary | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of temozolomide in treating patients who have metastatic germ cell tumors that have not responded to cisplatin. |
||||
| Detailed Description | OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the efficacy of temozolomide in patients with cisplatin refractory metastatic germ cell tumors. II. Determine the safety of this treatment in these patients. OUTLINE: Patients receive oral temozolomide on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days for a maximum of 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 14-25 patients will be accrued for this study over 25 months. |
