Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To investigate the efficacy (defined as complete response rate) of TIP in the 1st line treatment of patients with poor prognosis NSGCT and an unfavorable decrease in the serum level of tumor markers after 1 cycle of the BEP regimen. ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the progression-free and overall survival rate and toxicity of TIP regimen in patients with poor prognosis NSGCT and an unfavorable decrease in the serum tumor markers after 1 cycle of BEP.;Primary end point(s): Complete Response rate;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7 years and follow up until end of study | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Response rate, overall survival and toxicity, progression-free survival, overall survival and toxicity in patients with a unfavorable decrease of tumor markers;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7 years and follow up until end of study for efficacy, for toxicity from day 1 cycle 1 to safety follow up | — |
