A Prospective Study of Cabazitaxel in Patients With Non Seminomatous Germ-cell Tumors

CompletedPhase 2

Sponsor: Gustave Roussy, Cancer Campus, Grand Paris

Conditions: Non-seminomatous Germ-cell Tumors

Interventions: Cabazitaxel

Countries: France

Cabazitaxel is a new generation taxane with a high capacity for blood-brain barrier crossing and limited peripheral neuro-toxicity, two major potential advantages in patients with advanced NSGCTs. Cabazitaxel has a broader in vitro spectrum of activity than docetaxel. Taxanes have demonstrated activity in pre-treated GCTs and are now part of standard treatment, but cabazitaxel has not yet been tested in patients with NSGCT.

Age: 15 Years to —

Study type: INTERVENTIONAL

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* Male patients aged 15 years or older
* Evidence of advanced NSGCT documented either by pathology or by elevated tumor markers (AFP or hCG) and a compatible clinical presentation
* Primary site located in either the testis, the retroperitoneum or the mediastinum
* Progressive disease after at least 2 lines of chemotherapy for advanced NSGCT (ie, non-stage I)
* In case of brain metastases, confirm that patients should be stable / controlled with corticosteroid/anti seizures agents
* No other progressive carcinoma within previous the 5 years, except for basal-cell carcinoma of the skin
* Life expectancy \>/= 3 months
* Adequate hematologic function :
* Hemoglobin \>/= 10.0 g/dL
* Absolute neutrophil count \>/= 1.5 x 10 \^ 9/L,
* Platelet count \>/= 100 x 10 \^ 9/L,
* Adequate organ function
* Serum creatinine \< 1.5 x ULN. If serum creatinine 1.0 - 1.5 x ULN, creatinine clearance calculated (or measured) according to CKD-EPI formula (see Appendix B) \> 60 mL/min
